EXACTLY TRUE!!!!!!!!!. I resanded a whole batch of darters last year then figured out my glasses make them twist depending on which eye I sight them with.

Eddy's jig is the way to go, but you need a vertical beltsander since the jig will be on its side.

I just have a hand held BS cleated on the side of the bench .. If your bandsaw blade is decent you barely have to touch them ..

I've got BS all over the place, but it doesn't help. Does that mean I need a new bandsaw?

George looks like you have a nice start to the "lipless" .
where did you get ideas on proto ? what type of wood?

I just turned some musso 6" swimmers and some spin's . Started to make a few BM Schoolie's. Not sure of their fish catching ability ?
That lipless has peaked my curiosity along with your predator knockoffs

What bandsaw do you have as it might just need some tuning.

You're still asleep. That was tongue in cheek. I've got a Rockwell 14" (not to mention an ancient 20" Porter Cable in pieces), it could use some tuning (new tires), but everything else is set right. Even with high tension on a high count skip tooth blade (dressed with a stone and running in cool blocks) I don't get smooth enough cuts in maple to avoid sanding.

Eddy has a little bench top delta (I think) with a very thin kerf blade and very high speed. Does a better job for most plug building chores than my real saw. If I had someplace to put it I'd buy one just to do lip slots.

Thats true ,, little Delta is pissa ($100.00)... I have a larger floor model Delta brandy new I rarely use ,, Its got the power but the speed on the little bench model does a better job .
