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 :kewl:

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 :musc:
