Cool

Maybe "greed" was too strong, I do like the hoarding concept. Ha, I should know I only have 1100 or so hanging in the cellar from the floor joists, walls and shelves. Course I have been at it since I was 8 years old, so...... but 30 by a bunch of guys really kicked the sh!t out of the individual creativity thing and ramped up the boredom level of watching all those plugs being made but actually there are only 27 new plug ( or familiar) designs out of the 800 +/- plugs built.

I don't post many. I do make quite a few, tagger and Numby can attest to that. But I disdain the thought of a duplicator though I know it would make life easier, especially when you come up with a winner. Buit the test is to see how good you can get with the eye and calipers (which I hardly ever use) and make each one unique.

Everyone says I should sign my plugs. I don't do that either. I kinda like the mystery. Is it or isn't it? Hmmm....

Fred I would post up some more but my trusty dig camera has finally died and I am not shelling out 60 plus bucks for a Sony battery for a camera with 2001 technology and pixel strength.

Sorry if I disturbed anyone, just my thoughts.

Did I tell you about the rod and reel I caught today while trout fishing? almost brand new. Beats a Rainbow anyday.

Why even try.........
