Homemade gear

[McLean2016]

Well lately I've been getting back into wood working, and have starting building my custom tipups/tipdowns. Also started a pretty detailed replica whitefish ice fishing stick for my lucky tipdown. Lol man what a pain in the a$$ to cut each scale out by hand, but finally got the scales finished. Working on the head, then fins, and will upload pictures when it's done. Or I may just send them all to an admin and then can post it for me, lol
My question is, what's everyone building?
Anyone into lead pouring, I have started to design my own molds now. Will be pouring by the months end of all goes as planned, hope everyone had a great thanksgiving!

I've also thought about this before, but never convinced myself to build my own gear. It's still on my mind all the time and I think I may try it someday.
