Hel.. If you had to find one of those high $ swimbaits of your's to pack up and ship you'd have a hard time finding it even if you did sell it for what it is worth. You definitely need more shelves and a label gun!

Well with 6_feet_deep's help I located a sale at Hobby Lobby on Airbrushes (30% off) and picked up an Iwata Eclipse. Let's just say if you are new to this DON'T buy a cheaper airbrush like the Master one I got (G44). The G44 did OK on simple non pearl or metallic paints but just frustrated me trying to paint pearls and metallics. The Master's are just too fine a needle and point and clog up. Your constantly clearing/cleaning and hoping it will spray the color batch you just mixed. Swapping out to a .3 needle and point helps but still didn't get it. The Eclipse blasted out the pearl and metallic like it was water even with only a .35 needle and point. Like Night and Day. It will take some time to get used to the width/volume control on the Eclipse now, but wow, what a difference. I think I will have to put on an inline pressure adjustment right on the hose versus always spraying at 45#s. Any suggestions from the pros?

I want to know where you get a 40% off Hobby Lobby coupon!!!

I've been to the Ogre swamp where Tater lives and let me tell you the guy is insane. I don't think I have ever seen him where he hasn't been up for 2 days straight. He says he has kids and a wife but the only evidence I've seen is a kid's meal in the drive way. Maybe he or the Ogre just ate them. I'm not sure how many of his creations have seen these pages or eBay but he has a few that have swimming action that is just unbelievable. He has been really tinkering and has some great wake baits. He should sell them to the musky boys. And the paint jobs are as we have seen quite creative and or life like. He has a swimbait painted like a bass and if you just caught a glimpse of it on the end of a line, you'd think that is exactly what it was. I am waiting for him to mold a 6-7" shad and perfect the paint job for it. I keep telling him I'll prototype test a shad for him.
