Nice work Christian...

As for the gloves, pick up a box of the non powdered Latex or non latex medical gloves. Cheap like $5 for a 50 pair count at CVS & Walgreens... You won't want the powdered kind because that will get onto what you are wrapping.

thanks for the comments.
john- i found an even better source, my dad "borrows" em from his work.
i did a float test this morning on them and they're perfect. that huge popper thats just primed is schweet.
do that one in a herring color, with some of those huge green cat eyes or the huge blue eyes and thatll be my monster plug.

Must've taken awhile to 'make' the open water....you must've used an ice pick right?

Nice job with the eyes, what did you end up using to make the holes? And are those plastic doll eyes that have the peg in the middle?
