I drill the thru wire hole after shaping the plug using the center pin/drill press method that numbskull recommends, and finish with a hand drill. Learned it from a post by rockfish.

On my larger handcarves I drill a 3/8" hole for my hangers, smaller sized holes on smaller plugs, down to 1/4", fill all holes with epoxy, no gromments.

I make my hangers using round nose pliers, real easy once you know how, learned from Ted.

Rivets are available from lure parts,they have two sizes, they are used on buzzbaits, both sizes are good to have.

I'll try and post a photo of the drill press method later, got to find them ?????
