Joe, I have a question,

Is there a reason you do not turn the head & the tail at the same time? Useing one longer piece of glued up stock.

Economics.... I pre cut almost every blank to 8 1/2"... after sawing a 4X4X12' hunk of cedar ( of coarse it's not realy 4X4) but when making smaller plugs, instead of makeing extra saw dust, I resaw the lumber, it turns fastrer less wate, the thin peices can then v=be glued to make needle fish, smaller plugd etc... same with the maple, when i make darters, rather than make shaving form all that lumber I re saw it...

A good run is better than a bad stand!

Excellent tutorial there Joe. Appreciate all the time you took to prepare it.

I hope you do not mine me compiling it into a pdf format (attached) with some editorial spell check & butchering of your photos Seeking permission to distribute it for those who asks too, okay by you?.

if I did not want it on the net, I would not have put it up... be my guest... spell check is good... it takes me too long to correct my mis spellings and typographical errors...
