    Thar's cool. A lot of the metal lips are heavier and you need a bigger stick to throw them. This one should be perfect for a lighter setup.

    The through wire is not parallel with the lip I told DS that before didn't want to upset you in post #9 and it has no hooks since you asked. Been tuning plugs since the 60's . I was taught by some of the best builders god rest there soles.
    So do I win the plug only kidding but do like the paint job.
