Anybody building anything?

It's been kinda quite in here. I'm getting a late start this winter. I finally picked up some maple last weekend and Im going to start working on some needles. Anybody else building ?

On to some Nike’s. Professor posted some specs on the Floyd Roman’s a while back and finally got to diving in. Have to seal my first one and test it but so far happy with where it’s going. Darters and trollers next been making some serious sawdust this week. I tried to revive the Sunday morning plug talk thread last winter but there was minimal interest. Would love to see more activity here

Ive added my 2 cents to those threads in past. I started in November turning. Just finish putting topcoat on all the plugs.
Needles 5"-12" 1 & 2 hook pikes. Diving & surface. Want to do a few nostalgia plugs i.e. conrads, 6" donnys, maple spin atoms etc. Ill see if time allows. I have so much plug components and templates , I could make just about any type.
I would like to see a thread started. Always great to hear about the weekly progress.

I'm glad to see there's still some guys building

Higgie/pbadad its easy enough to start a 2021 thread even if it might not get used as much as they used to.
