I also have some more peanuts done. Some are fully sealed. These are right around 4.5", maple and AYC weighted to sink slow in natural and wonderbread paint.

Couple more loose pics I have laying around.

A large "lipless" plug in basswood. Larger than my smaller ones I have had good success with. My tests so far have been ok. Slight tweaks needed.
