I no longer use it as a top coat either..but I do use it to seal my Baits before I start the painting process..Nathan

If you put this down in the wire bait section you may get a response..This is more for crankbaits..etc..Nathan

Musky, I think you are right..I found some of this at Cabela's and order it in the different sizes they had ...They aren't cheap...your at a little more than a dollar a chain!!..I just want to check them out..I still don't know if it is a usable option..Nathan

Love seeing your work but these photos belong in the gallery..Not here..Nathan

Don sent me this link to bead chain that is used in trolling rigs...to steal a line from Laugh In..."Hmmm...Very Interesting"...If you get that last reference..your like me,..old!!..Nathan
-
Definitely have to use SS..I was doing some research and this stuff comes in all sizes.. Mark, I wouldn't cut my bait in half..Just drill out each side slightly larger than the chain, a little 5 minute epoxy on the chain..a little down the hole and feed the chain down the the hole with a tooth pick..etc..let dry on one side then do the other side...What do you think?..Nate

Has anyone seen this method before?....looks easy enough..and bead chain is fairly strong...Nathan
-
Don't blame you a bit Salty..If I'm ever up that way I'll definitely take you up on that tour..I'd love to meet you after all these years!..Nate

Sweet...Love to see a video of your whole process..Nathan

I've been reading about guys using these nails on fly patterns to make them swim...These things come in Clear and several colors as well as a bunch of shapes and sizes...Anyone tried them on crank baits?...It would be easy to tune them with a set of nail clippers!!..Nathan

Ed will talk your ear off if you get him on the phone..great guy and great product at a really good price..Nathan

I use the spray on laquer you can get it at Walmart in the spray paint section...Just a couple thin coats is all you need...I think it works better than spray on poly a Riki's to coat the decals with..Nathan
-
You can mix your glitter in with a little poly acrylic..that way you can put the glitter where you want it and it will stay where you put it..also you can use different color glitters if you choose too...a little green glitter brushed across a brown back..or a little pearlescent on a white belly...etc..Nathan
-
You may want to look into decal setting solution..after you apply the decal you brush some of this on and It softens the decal and makes it lay better...... Some also claim that vinager will do the same thing..I've never tried it Anglinarcher was right about the warm water to soak the decals in too..Nathan

I do all the time with no problems..but I put my glitter on BEFORE I top coat..Nathan
-
We had several get togethers over the course of 5-6 years... We had builders from Australia and England attend as well as several states represented through the years...Towards the end we had about12-15 attendees over the 3 day event..We haven't had any in about 5 years...I'm thinking I may have another one this next spring..Nathan
-
I doubt your going to find a actual template of these baits...you'll have to make your own..Nathan
-
Thanks...That covered my shipping costs..Nathan
-
Dick's customer service is top notch...He'll get you taken care of!!..Nathan
-
Another thing about natural bucktail is that it has a natural taper to it..Most synthetics don't...Hareline has just come out with a new synthetic bucktail that is all the craze but I can tell you..I'll take the natural any day!!..Nathan
-
Your right about Lisa & Eds...service is great and you can't beat his prices...This other company just offers some really unique beautiful stuff..Nathan
-
That's weird...type the addi into your browser and it will open..Nathan
