Traced the 2 planes onto a block of WRC. Drilled the thru hole using my lathe from each side


I cut it on my BS in the vertical plane... then taped it up and then cut it on the hortizontal plane... then sureform , handplane, and block sanding. I cut the diving plane on the table saw before

Plug has one slug of lead just aft of the belly hook


making the cupped lip was the hardest part... I need a better method for making cupped lips and the attachment tabs... Paul M must have ways to do this in thin SS with his typical precision...The lip must match the curve of the plug belly... not easy to do well
