I can't wait! I love seeing all the new work and ideas. The year that Tagger looked at a plug, then looked at me and said "we suck" made PlugFest history for me. There's always something mindblowing going on.

Depends on Mother Nature. It's a long haul from VT. If she keeps the winter grease off the road I will be there!

Coming too soon, and not soon enough. Fantastic how much it shortens winter.

I've never been to plug fest. I am going to try to go this year. If I do I'll bring my Worksharp 2000 with me. Guys can check it out and sharpen there tools if they are so inclined.

I'm getting ready, I just came up from the shop now to register for the Rotary derby, so I checked in.... I''m working on a display of various methods of rigging a plug, from screw eyes, to cotter pins, to external rigging... in each set there will be one plug that gets "band saw eddyized"to show the "guts" and one finished off adornig the matching rigging... it broke my heart tonight to cut in half a 7 " Roman Nike copy, a Norris squid copy and a Captn bills swimmer ( all made by me, no originals were destroyed in the proscess) but it got eaiser each time..I'm trying todisplay ( to the best of my knowledge) the rigging used by each builder... I've still got a pile of plugs to cut, the display ought to be pretty neat... and I might find a plug or two to set up on the table as well as a few for HO'in..
