No matter what you read or see you still have to connect the dots by doing.

Plug making is like skiing. You can watch all the videos and read all the articles and books you want to about skiing but only time on the slopes give you the techniques and knowledge to be able to ski double black diamonds. (Hey - I'm from Vermont - I had to draw a parallel to skiing sometime)

From the info I've gotten from here I usually only fail at my first 5 or 6 attempts instead failing 15 or 20 times.

I'm all into sharing info on the basics and widely known techniques and designs. But by the same token folks that have something they put the time and sweat into should keep them secret or only share it with their inner circle.

There's lots of info here. And some golden nuggets. There is a bit on silver platters but most stuff takes research and experimentation. Videos would just be part of the mix. Converting information into application is the hard part.

Thanks for taking me fishing Grandpa!
