Very nice.


However I dont see the fascination with knocking off the oldies exact

I think they are a good place to start but for me and maybe I'm a little to specific on a plugs action for a "spot" but the oldies are just that, oldies. From what Ive seen they need alot of "tweeking".

Like I said they are a good reference but from what Ive seen they were made with whats on hand to get the job done and then there's WW2 and how they got around the problem of metals etc...

Blasfamy I know, Oh well. I am not mutch of a historian of plugs so maybe I shouldnt say anything but it seems to me the best stuff came from boutique builders.

Dont get me wrong I do like the knock offs but sometimes I dont understand it...

Bring on the arrows
