Going to try to get there for a while. Daughter has an athletic competition for her college in Conn in the afternoon I can't miss that. I would hate to miss it completely learned a lot last year.

If I were you guys I would pay reaaaal close attention to how PNG does that Cutlass type plug. I burned through a lot of wood trying to get one just like the original. I'm still off a little, but close enough

That one has a little tighter wiggle than the original (painted one), but I could easily change that by cupping the lip some. Fun plug to mess with. Thanks to Skitter for loaning me the original. Be painting up a couple as soon as I can drill out the rest of my spring rotation

The good and the bad, #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& can't make it this year

The good is he can't steal any more of my ideas and colors
The Bad is I will not be able to get any free wood
