Most of my wait is in drying time for sealer (about 5 days-BLO/Mins) painting might take anywhere from a few minutes to 3 days depending on the pattern I want. I would say turning to wired about 2 weeks!
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

A dozen plugs is right around 2 hours. What did you use to hold the belly weights in your swimmers to allow you to seal them so fast?

I use a similar duplicator(homemade) thanks to fishbumwannabe.
I would say I spend a total of about an hour per plug complete on average.

to turn and prep(meaning ready for painting) I would say , 12 plugs takes around 6 hours time since that is around half the work involved or more.
