    stix

    Looking for someone to do a small run of 5.25 stix, i have a specific custom colour in mind... was using LC grape, LC strawberry red, fuscia and purple glitter and white pearl powder... it's a junebug type colour, but darker... i *may* have a sample i can send out... looking for 25 or so, sorry such a small amount... PM me with pricing- if you're in Canada even better, if not no worries...
  2. No worries on that.. i'm 10mins from Niagara Falls, NY and always have my stuff shipped there... never a hassle coming in with it
  3. interesting, i wonder how fiberglass being used for the divider would hold up... apparently it doesn't respond to heat until 1700*+.... and the resing itself is used for molds... wish i had the room to give it a go
  4. plum purple with purple and fuschia flake, no matter water visibilty they always seem to get bit
  5. the other thing you may try doing is turning the flash off and using a longer shutter speed... if you have a setting for aperture on your camera set it and it'll adjust the shutter speed for you, if taht doesn't work keep taking pics in shutter priority until you get the right exposure... a light tent would be a real good solution and cheap to make aswell, DelW posted a how to for one a while back... but hey, if it were me i'd be happy with that pic, but still looking for perfection
  6. main page is up, all links are dead for me...
  7. all i wanna know is... jim did you get my PM?
  8. use USPS or Fedex.... i'm not sure how big of a box USPS deals with, as i don't have to worry about it i just ship it to my address in the U.S. and bring it through my business, takes me an extra 2hrs to do so but saves me a TON in shipping and the brokerage and crap... living near Niagara Falls is sometimes a good thing lol
  9. my inlaws used to show horses and they used huge stainless needles for them, my father in law told me they had nice wide openings and would probably be perfect to use for pouring... might be worth a try to visit a farmer or vet or something, used to get his from a local farming store lol
  10. you were fishing in my backyard, okay not literally.... are you a member of OFN or NFN? here is the only place i know of... http://www.lurecraft.com/catalog.cfm/molds/plastic-molds/big-fish-baits I'm sure Del or Bob could make a custom one, but it sure wouldn't be cheap!!
  11. there used to be a tutorial on this site regarding that... it was a clear silicone with some water added, worked fine from what i remember... also remember the turotial using a lego blocks as a support for the silicone to sit in...
  12. i, and my customers, prefer a really bright pink as opposed to a dark pink (like the original bubblegum)... for me i use: 6oz plastic 1oz softener 1.5oz salt 10 drops fl. pink 5 drops of white it's a really really bright pink, similiar to GYCB pink but brighter... i bought some premixed bubblegum but it was too dark, and for some reason i got bubbles with it, didn't care as it just wasn't bright enough! I will post a pic tonight, gotta take the wife in to get her new diamonds (there goes several molds lol)
  13. good to hear.... tho not surprised taht Jim's work perfect!! Keep reporting back on your field tests!! I'm waiting on a PM return to see if he's got any more going on ebay so i can give 'em a try... bass season closes late Nov and doesn't open until late June, so i wanna see what the hype is all about...
  14. i wonder if framing some type of screen and brushing paint/ink/dye to it and then rolling the bait while it's still on the knife, prior to the last dip, would accomplish anything... no molds to try it out, so someone can give that a go if they wish lol
  15. "cored" senko... it's clear (with come salt) with a blue centre, worked VERY well for me i poured my first colour (clear), let it set up a bit and then poured the blue gave it a little bit of extra time to setup and then closed the mold and poured the clear again... it stayed solid and didn't give the split vein effect the blue was totally surrounded by clear
