stripersniper did sliding weights

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

No problem Paul

thanks tagger, it was fun, even with the internet being unplugged several times while trying to post and read

I always wanted Killie to do a plug to give to my dad, he loves lighthouses, just never got around to asking him, does he still post over there.
etch makes some real unique stuff

No .. I was pretty sure you always comment .. That Numbskull thing was a one of a kind "Plugfest"contest entry he made goofing on me . It was looked at as a joke in the contest but if you take a second look its an amazing piece of work in handcarve. I don't know who's hair it is.

Hey Eddie.....here's a tough question.....which of those plugs would you be comfortable using (and maybe losing)? Seem's like there is always a dilemma when you give or get plugs from other builders. The nicer you try and make them, the less likely they are to get used.

From the ones you've shown, I'd throw the Bernzy, Smith, Slip's, and Lu's. What criteria do people go on when deciding what to fish?

Good one George .. You don't know the history .. means something to me .. Bernzy Howdy I got in a swap I think 5 yrs. ago .. Thats first time , first run he ever made a Howdy .. Lu's I have another to throw. I just like that plug and lu's work enough to showcase it .. Slips I like the design of the pencil and thats a Fishing freak paint job on it .. may copy the pencil to throw . Ryans is on the fence .. they are sold commercialy so I can get another and I don't have many jointed plugs although I do have more RM Smiths .. I might have to get that one wet .
