So far I'm in. bringing my ws2000 so folks can see it in use (bring your dull lathe tools) Also some A-40's, Pikies and some miscellaneous stuff for swappage if anyone is interested.

The Dad Fisherman 02-01-2010 11:34 AM

I'm planning on being there.....got some swappage plugs in the Primer coat right now.

Hoping to start my contest plug tonight...

vineyardblues 02-01-2010 11:57 AM

Larry, how big is the new location ?
I can always bring some Vintage plugs if needed :rotf2:
I hope to bring the pickles again :grins:

VB

Finatic 02-01-2010 11:58 AM

I'll be there with some swap stuff.

BigFish 02-01-2010 12:15 PM

I think its pretty big Peter but Bruce can tell you better! Bring the vintage goods Peter......we would all love to see them!!

Slipknot 02-01-2010 12:22 PM

A lot bigger than last year

It's not as large as the Elks in Wareham but not as much money either.

Bigger than the Mitchell club we used to have it at in Middleboro.

Come early enough to get a table if you are displaying stuff. Starts at 9

should be a great time as usual

I'll bring some stuff for the raffle to help support Flaptails' family along with my duplicator.
If it doesn't rain I may bring my lathe again. And I hope to have some plugs made by then.

Rockfish9 02-01-2010 12:33 PM

I'll be there.... I'll have bottles, darters, pikies in 4 sizes, surfsters in 3, goo-goo's in 3 sizes, Danny's in 3 sizes,40's in 2 sizes, assorted jointeds as well as Misc. plugs ( all made by me) ranginng fro Cap'n Bill's swimmers to a few Nike's..
for a display I have one about half finished on various methods of attaching hooks and pull eyes to a plug/ or rigging of said plug as it were... this will include in some cases plugs i made and "Taggerized[cut in half]" for the display... I may bring along a few of my jigs/fixtures if there is interest...

eskimo 02-01-2010 03:08 PM

I'm syked. It truly speeds up winter for me.

Don't know what I'll bring but I'll bring some stuff.

angler229 02-01-2010 03:45 PM

I'll be there with a bunch of my stuff for trade and show. If I get really motivated I'll set up a shadowbox with some of my vintage plugs for display.

johnny ducketts 02-01-2010 05:29 PM

I'm in! and bringing a new member of S-B.

WackinEm 02-01-2010 07:20 PM

i plan on trying to make it down. carpool with VB perhaps? im excited to see some of you guys' stuff maybe gain some knowledge, and i may even enter the best rookie/novice contest, although since ive only had a lathe for 2 months and only had about 2 weeks to build so far, novice is an understatement :confused:

smac 02-01-2010 07:25 PM

I'll be there with some stuff to swap.

saltydog 02-01-2010 07:40 PM

I could bring a couple skews to be sharpened if you would like to demo the sharpening process.

Excellent. That would be great.

Dad 818 02-02-2010 07:05 PM

Still debating whether I can make it. Knee is still not 100% so I have been unable to turn anything to swap, :fury: and I don't like hoeing without having anything to give in return. Maybe I'll break out my Halloween hobo outfit.

EricW 02-02-2010 09:23 PM

I'll be there. Bringing my two displays of old plugs and maybe some other old time goodies. This includes mostly goo goos, but also Gibbs, Atom, Bluestreaks and a bunch of stuff I have no idea about. Have been able to cross a few off the list of un-identified plugs thanks to some people at plugfest.
If anyone is up to it, I would love to see thru drilling on the lathe.

You have vinage plugs? :rotf2: Maybe I'll have to stop by sometime.:buds:

Looking forward to plugfest. I'll be there. I'm bringing some plugs. Trying to finish them before I head down to Texas to shoot some pigs.

See the sticky at the top of the forum: Plugfest 10 Feb. 20th 2010.

I will be there if Mother Nature does not throw a weather wammy at me. Bringing some swappage, a contest entry or two, a raffle donation, and a jig I use a lot.
