some finished stuff

Nice stuff Paul. You'll have to let us know how you do with the darters. So many variables on a not so bouyant wood. The density of each piece of wood and the amount of sealer it soaks up can change how each one sits/swims.

The ones I made 2 years ago work better than the ones I made this winter after I thought I knew what I was doing...

LOL. Yes each one weighs a wee bit different. I heated and sealed them with epoxy for more strength in the lip area and I think, I say think, you can control the amount of sealer better than soaking them in a spar or other similar sealer for a specific time period, and hopefully get them to be a little closer in similarity as far as overall weight goes. We shall see. Thanks to all. Youz guys are great
