Prototype number one- Gag's old style needle

I thought sealing was done before thru-wiring? Nice looking shape.

Good point. I didn't soak the plugs for too long during the trial. Also, I weighed all the plugs prior to testing so I can keep track of any water logging and let them dry back down to the original weight prior to sealing....I'm still a rank amatuer so bear with me....

I'll give my proto's a quick dip in some poly a day before testing.

Some plugs can really soak up water during testing...Not that they won't dry, but the action will change from when you start to after your done tweeking. I may test a plug for up to an hour or more messing with lips/hooks/weight placement.
