My first plug is done and I cheated and made a male mold for my special,instead of making a female mold with gel coat. I'll post some pics tonight if anyone is interested,I will also be making two more plugs for different style maybe a ducati.I have to get some extra cash to order tooling gel and other materials to make proper molds for production.
