no BS, my first two plugs, did some expiramenting before painting on real plugs, but nothing serious, bought the bodies already spun and painted them so I guess they're not "all" mine, next year I'll get a lathe and spin my own blanks, now to catch a fish on them, on a side note, betting the wire right is without scratching the finish is harder than everything else we did on them

Very cool

One small critique that will help you out would be to make sure you round the edges. Like on that top danny, if you just take a bit of sand paper and just hit that edge lightly on your next one it will round that edge a bit and help your epoxy flow right over that curved edge versus trying to get it to flow over that sharp edge.

They look great though

Domination takes full concentration..
