I make em one at a time which sucks i don't have a duplicator and I'am too lazy to make one of the Capesams type.But I really like turnin a piece of wood. other than paniting its my favorite part.i chuck a piece up an I never know where it's gonna take me.So i turn a blank takes i don't know, A while.Then i mark it for holes an eyes an stuff.then i drill, then i do the lip cut, cut off the ends through drill, add weight sand somemore.then e-poxy seal, prime, then i can paint, then i put em together add eyes, then i epoxy em takes about a yr for 12 plugs.When u got a duplicator u can set up jigs to do all the meanial tasks without marking or any of that crap an it goes alot faster as every plug is the same.I was on a roll for a while but have hit a little lull lately.I got bot a dozen to seal an have been avoiding them like the plague.if come on sat not sure i will have anything worthy to bring an some owsies will wipe me out pretty fast so i don't wanna come empty handed,I hate plugs. I remember being a pioneer in this plugbuilding thing now i'm just a fan.
