The best thing to do is talk to your better business bureau, it is free and they will answer or direct you to the right place. Every state has different laws regarding business licenses.

There is always a chance to sell it to one person but not always likely. Biggest problem I see is shipping cost....List it and see is the only way.

Can not answer your question about acid. But always wear a mask and have a vent fan running too!!

Wow, that's pretty interesting. I didn't know that there were so many.

Depends on how much you want to defend your idea/patent if there is one. Also you will need deep pockets and lawyers to protect it. If you have all that then you can do what you want. I look at it this way if it was my idea then I would want to protect it as much as possible from others copying it.

I am a bit late to the party but one piece gliders can absolutely swim like a 2 piece glider. My glides swim with a nice S-pattern and the fall perfectly horizontal with a shimmy. Because they sink perfectly horizontal with a slow fall, they will sink to the bottom and stand on their hooks without falling over. Making the belly thinner than the top and putting the weight as low as you can gives you a very strong shimmy on the fall. I won a fair amount of money with these baits in tournaments. Smallmouths in crystal clear water love them and will come up from 20 feet to get them. I also found this that might be used as a reference.

I put together a jig business. With a couple pros making marketing videos for the website it drew attention. I focused on selling wholesale and made personal calls to stores. The pandemic helped tremendously because I had ordered plenty of materials and they were manufactured here in the USA, so no supply issues. Recently sold the company to a bigger outfit. It was interesting and profitable but good luck was definitely a factor.

Just thought I'd throw this out there for anyone wanting to try this. Apparently this website lists all the pressed penny machines people have found in the United states listed by state. So it should help you find pressed penny machines in your area. http://209.221.138.252/AreaList.aspx

jigs are easy. buy a do-it mold . crankbaits will require a bit more things to build baits.

I think the spring needs to be moved 90* from its position. The weight needs to move front to back because of the position of pull movement.

I was disappointed with the short duration of the vibrations with the one I had years ago. Probably a bad idea but I was just thinking some mercury sloshing back and forth in a small glass vial in a well balanced lure might give longer lasting movements and a little flash too ?

I located and purchased one of the old throbbers from eBay. Perhaps the newer Acme Pulse works better. The original is to heavy and the weight of the plastic bait kills any vibration from the spring..Nathan
