Question

If a "newbie" is allowed I would be honored to be included in this. Some here have seen and hopefully fished my plugs and can tell me if I'm worthy or should wait till next year.

30 plugs is alot of plugs
as long as we ALL put hooks on them, I'm in. and as long as my back gets better.
and I hope they don't all have to be the same exact colors.
you're a brave man Tobias

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.

Well, with all the plugs I owe to people, having to make my own, a crazy 2 1/2 year old, work, and psychotic wife ....Whats 30 more. I am in.

I agree with Slip. Every plug needs hooks.

I'm in if every body does hooks, I don't want to shell out for a ton of VMC's and then have to buy more. At least I'll have sometning to do this winter.

How about as another option Nobody puts hooks on....thay way you can put on what you want after the fact.

It doesn't matter to me.....I'm good either way

I think the no hook option would make it a lot easier to ship, smaller package, and would eliminate hard feelings if some people put on 4x VMC's and others used something of lesser quality and the other builders felt they had to change them out costing them more money. Unless it's agreed that we all use the same hardware, swivels included. But I'm the new guy so I'll go with the flow and like it .



*added: We could post here what size and style is recommended on the builders plug by the builder.

Good point, we wouldn't need to use hook protectors etc either.

okay i'm in. i would also like to vote on no hooks. it just makes everything simpler for everyone, plus it allows everyone to use the hardware they prefer.

Would you be interested in a 3 for 90 trade? (kidding andy... your plugs are staying in the south!!)

I might be small.... but I'm slow.

Maybe I missed it but when would the plugs have to be finished by?

No hooks for everyone makes sense - easier to ship and it takes no more time or money to put hooks on the plugs you get instead of the ones you make.

Deadline will probably be in March. Haven't set the deadline yet. Good to see you join Arne.

Can't wait to see a Krispy plug, not to many of those around

I haven't really had the chance to make very many plugs for some time - too much to take care of - but I should be starting back up by December. March should be fine.

Now the hard part is trying to decide what plug you want to make 30 of.

No-one wants to admit they actually have one

Krispy, I almost had to Ho Adam and Brian to get one of yours but they would only let me look at it. I'm very lucky to have two Krispy plugs. Thank you for your generosity!!!

Tobias, i'm just throwing this out there- do you think it is a good idea to have an updated list of who is in this swap on the first post. i think it makes it really easy to see whos in it and find out how many plugs we will have to build. thanks
