    Hey Wesley, I love that your making plugs, I thought I would mention this for future reference if your making any to sell, if your selling as 1 inch you need to measure one size up from an inch as the outside diameter or they will fall out of our ears hehe! So you would draw a circle at 1 and 1/16” and then the inner measurement of the plug that you make your groove at would measure 1 inch! If the outer diameter isn’t bigger then 1” everytime we turn our heads they fall out haha. Keep on working hard these are awesome!

    Since your profile is a 1"circle the wearable area in middle is the size of the gauge.13/16 is your size.if your selling those as 1" that is very wrong.companies do this often.wearble area is the plug/gauge size not the outer flares

    • @ArizonaLilly
