No CS, I drill the bodies etc, then put #10 screw hooks into the ends of the plug, paint them, then put them on the drying wheels hooked end to end to epoxy them. When you epoxy them there's always a area around the screw where it goes into the plug where the epoxy gathers while it's spinning, and when it dries it basically epoxies the screw hook in, then when you try to back it out if the bond of epoxy to the hook doesn't shear off the body of the plug then the screw threads that are larger than the body of the hook eye grab the epoxy and that rips it out. Basically what happens is that by twisting the whole thing it puts the epoxy in shear and the weak link is the epoxy to paint so it rips a whole section off the front of the plug right down to primer and I get a wrecked plug.
