Yes. Give me 12 plugs and everyone else will support what you did

Ditto, and worth every penny. (and you will spend more)
You've set the bar high, now you have to top yourself

Thanks for all the positive feedback from everyone , I owe everything I know about making plugs from this forum .

Just for the record , the top half of the plug is redwood which came from an old redwood fence and the botton was a piece of scap maple . I glued the pieces together with titebond 3 waterproof glue . Before gluing the halfs together I ran a vee router tip groove down the center of each piece creating a perfect center wire channel . I finished with e-tex .
Any questions about the glue holding up , .......... I've had a plug glued up and submerged in water for about a month now and it's still holding strong.
Thanks again
