I started with free wood scraps from work,, Mahogony.. Big Mistake for rookie . try thru drilling that straight ..,Then I bought a giant pile of belly grommets with big re enforced ring around them ..No Good ..they wouldn't wrap around plug..Painting ... wanted to get them done as fast as possible... sealed,,primed,,painted,,spar varnish ,,and epoxy all in about 2 hours time ... Plugs peeled like bananas... Every coat let dry a whole 24 hours before the next no matter what the can says... I became discouraged and didn't try agian for a year .. studied ..lurked..peeked in windows ,,,now I'm back ,,
