I know this is a wooden plug building forum but here are a few Seapups that I printed on my 3d printer. 1 1/2, 1 3/4 & 2 oz. Material: ABS. Very tough. Interior is honeycombed not hollow as are most injection molded plastic plugs. Color is all the way through. They were 3d modeled in Solidworks and printed on a Makerbot 3d printer. They take about 2 hrs and twenty minutes to print and come out complete with wire through hole, hook and weight c'bores and eye sockets ready to finish.

similar in density

to a molded striper swiper

heavier tho but good when bass are out of Range

or fast retrieve em to keep em on top

SAW a plug lure design yesterday that got me thinkin
again about this process....
that being.....
it was two plugs combined like two bait fish
staying extremely close to one another
like a mini school of fish
(one following the other)
