I never seen that lure Eddy and your solder work looks great nice job on all the hardware .I can't wait to see the finished product.I know we are not the only two making flaptails i wonder what the other mad scientists are working on?

Good mornin' all. I got so much in the works I'm getting dizzy. Only a month to finish it........gonna be ugly. Nothing is past the primer stage and most haven't even seen sealer yet.

Winter ain't long enough these days.

i hear you george. I have not primed anything yet. I think this year I am not going to kill myself this last month and bring what I have finished and that's it. Will give me more time to visit others and enjoy myself more. Last year was very hectic the last few weeks and it got to be not fun.I am looking at a few hundred sealed plugs right now and I know there is no way in hell they are all getting finished and I don't really care.

Hi guys, I have a few plugs to epoxy from last year and many scattered bodies but I'd like to turn a few before the fest. I was thinking of trying that bluefish bomb plug.

BTW I spent the day in God's country at Steve's, Capesams, yesterday. Quite the shop. He has more stuff unfinished and stored than I have ever made. His showroom was a drool fest. His reproductions of plugs of days gone by were impressive. A true artist and very meticulous. Got several ideas for my own building and got to see several ways he goes about building which will is always good for stimulating new ideas on my end. It sure was fun and makes me feel like I'm not the only one with a problem.
