I did, then I realized that the wagon was made of wood, next thing you know, no wagon, just sawdust Finished the out of town stuff, now its plug/jig time

Charleston, I have two lathes. Dup is hooked up to the Jet. I turn freehand on the grizzly. The latter is what I use when working on something new. I sort of cheated for the photos Forstner bits for the weight and swivel holes.

Steelhead, weight in center will give more of a wiggle. Weight in the chin will give more of a wobble. Think of it this way, the weight provides the rotation point for the plug. The closer to the nose, the wider the wobble. Weight in the chin will also give more of a roll. Course these factors will also depend some on the type of lip used, shape of the plug, and how deep you place the weight.
