    Very nice work, surfstix. They look like they will catch fish.

    Nice metal lip surf. Who built the pocket rocket? That should cast like a missile.

    That would be my concern as well. Getting the tail wrap to look nice and neat. That's why I haven't tried building plugs yet. You guys make it look easy, but IMO there is a long learning curve. Speedy does nice work. Sweet color on the danny too.

    I enjoy the kits you get everything you need to build them except for hooks and split rings, if you use them it also gets you through the basics I don't have the $$ to be running out to buy a lathe,drill press and sanders nor the back to stand around doing it right now maybe in the future, when I do things for real I like to do them right and all the tools help.Thanks to all.
