Thumbs up New guy to building...PLUGS

So where do I start off. Well I acquired some things in the past week or two. I have a spray booth, drying racks Etc. I'm picking up a lathe this coming week.

What type of wood do you use? I know some guys use broom sticks. others??? What techniques do you guys use?? Is there a book to read up on this stuff??

Like I said newbie here!!!!!

Thanks Tom

The voices in my Head are telling me to go Fishing If I don't they won't go away

Try the tutorials as a start. Search away. Work at it a little bit and then the old dogs will help.

if you take the time to search the plug building forums all your questions will be answered

then ask about the super fine points

and then the builders will chime in
