I have a full blown transfer machine in my shop. Just load the blanks in the hopper and they feed to the turning station. The newly turned blank is moved via SPM (small parts manipulator) to the through drill station. Upon completion of through drilling the SPM hands it off to drilling center #2 where perfectly aligned belly hook holes are done along with eye holes. At this point the blanks go through the end cutting step where the square ends are removed and the plug ends are cleaned and sanded. At the final step the blanks slide down a chute into the sealing tank.........oh, OK, I'm awake now. I'll just go in and take a leak and go back to sleep......

Cool

Must be the old model, Bill. The new addition continues to prime, paint ,drop in the eyes and grommets, thru wires the lip and swivels,wraps the tail, instant epoxies the body, spins it dry, coats with butchers wax, twists on split rings and hooks,slides on hook protectors and puts it in a plastic sleeve.

I had one of those, but Tagger made me get rid of it cause it would not hydro-orient the blanks

If I go for speed, blanks tend to explode. I don't like that much..
