I make screw eyes from brass wire by myself. I use an electric screwdriver and a ?-shaped screw to make many screw eyes easily.

If the foil tape is not soft enough to stick to the round surface of the lure body, you can still stick the foil tape by making several triangle cuts in it and with some glue.

When I cut cb, I use a small scissors designed for cutting lexan board. And when I cut lexan, I use a cutter for cutting acrylic board.

Trekking, kayaking, gravel road bike, etc. And my main hobby is photography for several years and it makes me travel so often for shooting. Here are some of my works.

Thanks, Bob Some transparent material like gel pad might make it more beautiful and I also will try.

Yes, just rubber.

How about putting a shock absorber in the lip slot like this? I used small two plates of gum. A little bit ugly but seems to be durable.

Deep diving balsa flatside crankbait. -
BobP is right and you should set the lip deeper to where almost near the eyes. Deeper lip slot will make the lip stronger with super glue like Devcon 2 ton. You can do this if you make a V letter cut on the upper part of the lip to avoid the front eye heaton. I also use the lightest (softest) balsawood, Devcon 2ton, and twisted wire eyes and my lure never broken when I fished the big Barramundi.

Long time no see guys. I'm alive and sorry to be anxious about me, Pete Recently I rather like to go trekking than fishing I am one of the members from TackleMaking .com. Many years ago, Erik, the owner of the site asked me to get a tutorial of lure making from my personal site, and this is how I participate in TM. I've had a pleasant time and learned a lot of things from other members. Hiro

Nice one BobP, the triple impact is known as a big fish killer in Japan and your lure will catch the big ones. Did you know the lure had been a handmade lure by Mr.Nishine before Shimano started to make? He works in Canada and kwown as a builder of Beatour crankbait and Tru-life swimbait. http://nishinelureworks.com/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1
