Dude that squid is killer, all on the lathe?

[nitestrikes]

Wonder if this is the guy behind Buzzards Bay? The work looks very familiar I have seen this style somewhere but I just don't remember exactly. .Anyhow, very nice plugs thanks for sharing and welcome.

[basshunter]

[storminsteve]

love those plugs. They look pretty sturdy. what kind of wood are you using to make them?

[Rip-Plugger]

I have seen that squid plug on SOL,,very cool design I must say.
nice job aage.

[Rip-Plugger]

I am in the process of building well,sealing what I am going to paint up.
they are built already with some hanging up for a long dry with one still soaking in the sealer now,taking it out tonight to hang up.
only making 8 this winter and have 2 left to shape.
here are 2 of what I have hanging up drying.
2 fat hound dogs for the windy days.
this design casts very well in windy conditions.

wow you have a way with words, man. You took a piece of wood and transferred it into an experience!

[Rip-Plugger]

I have been told that many times.
who doesn't like a piece of wood that wiggles like a naked hulagirl on a hot skillet?
I know I do.

[lostatsea]

Nice work gents.

That looks like the larger version of the mag darter. I was wondering how much it weighs? very nice work by the way.

I sold that awhile ago, I think it was 3oz. 5 or 6" long, maple wood.

[hookedonbass]

Very sweet pluggage tks for sharing.

[7deadlyplugs]

Nice plugs

[fishinmission78]

Isn't it hard to make plugs out of maple?

[aage]

Yes, but what a difference it makes. Gotta have a good sharpening system for lathe tools. I have a Tormek T-7. a little pricey but worth it.
Also maple is such a smooth closed grain it seems easier and for hand carved shapes there are some great new burrs Kutzal for one

[surferman]

U carved that magdarter by hand? You're kidding right? you must have a hand as steady as a surgeon. Nice job
