Awesome stuff, Fred. Amazing finish on those Atom/Surfsters. And the squid, are they topwater or subsurface plugs? Please post some closeups when they're done.

Fred nice to see a cellar that looks like a cellar not some super clean modern dust free shop. Looks just like mine. Nice work too.

Did somebody say rockets? I have a few ready for tails - cannot make up my mind on feathers and colors. Black feathers and some white bucktail for good measure. Rockets for the swap!

The colors on the rockets appear blue, but are actually black with Violet Pearl X pigment rubbed over it. Grey to blue bellies with a touch of red flash.

The blue thing are off center turned swimmers. found them in the reject box and finished them. The little squids are very slow sink level needles. One of my staple plugs, a skin will fit over them, too. Clinton cobwebs, they realy light up in the flash, don't they?   On the little blue things that look like Minne Balls are skin jigs, maple filled with lead. They'll also carry a curly tail. |

Paul - you are a craftsman. I was impressed when I saw one of them at M&D, but seeing them finished I now can only say WOW. Beautiful work. You have to give me a lesson on offset turning. |

Hi friend
sweet plugs |
The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Here are my first plugs ever - turned them Saturday - big thanks to Baystalker for the lessons - especially the safety warnings!!!!!
This Danny shrunk & shrunk - here is whats left 
This one the tail is flared - I was scared of catching an edge which I did 
This one was a mistake  After rounding I gouged too much - had to reverse the stock and try to save it. We'll see
