MO1 is on a distinguished road
Bazztex--
I have one sitting on my desk. It is UGLY... My customer just cut some
blanks using your pattern. I could not talk him into doing the shaping for me.
SO, I was off on Tuesday( I have very little wood working skills ) But with a router and a dremel tool, this almost looks like a fishing lure.
I got stainess wire from a welding shop for the harness. Gander Mountain had some SPRO 250 lb split rings. This one is ready for a little more shaping / sanding , then it goes to the Daughter's place for paint.
Before I glued it together, I put some rubber bands around it and
threw it in the sink for a tank test. It listed to port pretty severely. I added
more wieght to the right side, it almost sits level now. I think this will
be a one of a kind.
Would you like me to send your patterns back ? Or just bring them
to Freeport ?
I will be ordering some Tuna hunters from Galveston soon.

Any plans for a DFW Bass Pro meeting before October ?
Thanks a ton for all the advice ,
MO
