You are off to a great start G2H. The plugs look great.
BTW it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. I wish you the very best of luck in your plug building endeavor.

i couldn't believe

how long it took me just to get to plugfest

i didn't factor in the distance i now live away from

highway 495 Not to mention i got lost for 45 minutes

and missed a turn... so i missed Most of Bigfish's

tutorial.. sadly.. but hey i digress, and your plugs

look JUST great ! Your most definitely on your way!

I can't wait to see one in the mouth of a striper.

Notice that your using an insert for your lipslot. Wondering what kind of material you use to protect the lipslot during epoxying.

those are home depot gifts cards, there's no value on them and fit perfect, i get them all the time. we have cases and cases of them. the only thing is those plugs above were pretty much ruined when i applied the devcon, i left the the gifts cards in the slots, what a pain in the arse to take them out. it chipped all the paint near the lip slot, because i had to take them out with a dremel... lesson learned. like tagger said just make sure you pull them before the epoxy sets up.
