    I am stuck at home Wisconsin is shut down, It makes me get cleaned up around here and I am starting two new projects a 12" troller and a 8" glide bait maybe a swim bait also. I live right on the Menominee river N E WI so I can test them out without going anywhere by the time I get them ready I can get the boat out and test. Also my top water needs a little work almost done on that one. Good luck to all and wash those hands. Wayne

    Just looking for those post for aluminum lips I would like to try aluminum lips with two line ties. Can't seem to find, anyone know where to purchase. Wayne

    I use Poly acrylic and mix the glitter in it then pour the acrylic with the glitter over the lure in a big enough cup. Then I keep pouring all the lures that I want to. If you leave the acrylic (water base) sit the glitter will settle to the bottom keeping the poly clear of glitter. Since these are mostly Musky lures I use the turner. You can thin but I don't. Wayne

    Do any of you guys make bluegill fins 7" fish size or other types of fish, or maybe you can point me in the right direction, flex able type but tough for musky lures. Thanks Wayne

    I just use KBS for small baits Epoxy for larger baits like 7" up. just dip the KBS and 2 maybe 3 coats. Dipping is great with KBS I don't use the turner just drip. Epoxy I use the turner. Wayne

    Looking straight at the nose look at the lip it might have a slight angle left or right. Wayne
  7. ravenlures
    First how far is the line tie from the nose of the bait, also it just might be the lip not grabbing enough of the water, what I mean is that your angle is a little off. The closer to the nose ill give you a tighter wobble the closer to the tip of the lip will give you a lure all over the place, but before you start changing get a set of pliers and adjust it first just to make sure that is not the problem. Send a picture plus type of lip you have on the bait. Wayne

    Just don't cut them off the pencil. I sand them to a point of size I need, cheap to make I have all sizes when needed. Wayne

    You can make a simple mold , putting two pieces of metal together and drill holes in it drill some pin holes first then the main holes make any size you want. Done that for years KISS. Wayne

    I use the eraser from a wood pencil and make the size I want on the sander I have plenty of different sizes. Then dip and dot. Wayne

  21. ravenlures
    Well it will be awhile before I get to it need warmer weather. Wayne
  22. ravenlures
    I think I will do this project and hope it comes out ok about 18" long X 10 to 12 wide and 12 deep 1 tray 2 drawers and place for spinners in the top of box when you open it, compartments for maps and papers on sides. Its in my head which I better draw it up because its going fast. I can seal it with KBS. Just brush it on costly but what the hell. Have to wait for warmer weather. Wayne

    I can't re-saw but I know of a person that could but I would worry about warping. He is a cabinet maker. Making my own plywood I think I will stay away from that I think it will just stay inside. Wayne
  24. ravenlures
    Just something I have been wanting to do 1/8" plywood and Cedar. Can't find any cedar plywood 1/8" or 3/16" so I can get a 4 X 8' maple for 32.00 well I'll see Im not going anywhere. Thanks Wayne
