I meant 5/16" deep.

I use a 7/8" screw eye through the lip for my line tie, so 1/16" deep is enough for my lips.

I cut my lip slot on my bandsaw, while my blank is still rectangular, so it's square to the blank I mark a centerline on my lip and on my finished blank, so I can line them up when I glue them together.

Cheap clear nail polish works great. I hand paint spinner baits with Createx, super glue the eyes on, and then coat the entire head with nail polish. I haven't had a paint failure or an eye come off in the 10+ years I've been doing it.

When I was a kid, back in the 50's, my mom had a cast steel pressure cooker, and a cast steel meat grinder that clamped on the pullout cutting board. So did most of her friends, because they ground their own hamburger and sausage meat. Different world back then.

Thanks for the correction.
