Summer doldrum building
Building seems almost non-existent in the summer. Finished up a surfster. Recognize the fancy tail :rock on: Thanks as always Stevel.

Happy fishing

MS

Hi MS,

I'm curious about what you use to create the recessed eyes.

Eric,

I use a fostner bit first the same diameter as the eye, then I finish with a round rotary ball bit. I usually clean up the edge better and make it smoother. The close up looks like I skipped that step on this one
