Mr. Pogie you been spying on me? Yup I come home from work and rush to the basement. I did use a sharpie for the lines. I may not envirotex this one. I might test it first and see how she swims. I put the weight behind the mid hook and in a line down to the rear hook. I wonder if I could use Testa model paint and just paint the stripe by hand, or use the paint from the spray can and hand brush them. I wish I had a scale so I knew how much this thing weighs. For the weights I improvised, I had no buck shot on hand. I cut some .38 wadcutters into lengths to fit the cavities. It is about a1/2" shorter than the original and seems a little lighter. I will have to compare it when I add the hardware. I might just pick up a clear coat tomorrow, so I can envirotex it.

John H I have seen your plugs and they blow mine away. Thanks for the compliment though. I appreciate it.
