I made a darter jig, following rockfish9's model. I was able to successfully turn a darter body and cut the slopes, so I feel encouraged about the jig and the ability to make a darter.

The first body I turned, I used the front and rear center holes on the wood stock to drill my thru hole, belly holes, and eye holes. I know the dimensions from the tail, but need to make sure they are parrellel and perpendicular (eyes)

Billy D suggested I hydro orient the plug in water to find its effective "top" which I agree with, but I am having a hard time envisioning locating the eyes and two belly holes after cutting the tag end off from the blank.

Any suggestions or old threads on this? Thanks, Matt
