Title: Cheap DIY blade plug
Post by: whitmers on May 18, 2014, 08:44:41 PM
Ok, so here is my first round of DIY blade plug.  Maybe I'll make more. Maybe not. It's pretty easy, but I need to get a little neater. Practice makes perfect I suppose. Finding a nice metal ring that would go around the poly carb might be nice.

I NEVER would have thought to use a sewing machine bobbin... I have HEAPS of old metal ones laying around! I might have to borrow from your idea

a point for your creativeness!
