Mcmaster-Carr.com look under material, wire, stainless. I got 100 12" pcs. of .035 for 9.00 and change!

I want to modify a couple of my molds to accept a wire trailer keeper. I have the wire keepers. How do I go about marking the mold and then actually cutting it out? Thanks!

Hey guys I have a strange question; I've been using my fluid bed to paint some jigs and I'm noticing that when I use my Green Pumpkin PP, it just lays there, when the air is running through it? All the other colors do fine, watermelon, black, brown, blue, but GP just sits in the pot and has three or four little holes in it that air shoots out of. If I tap it, it gets going, but then settles back down... Is the paint too dense? Not enough air? Thanks, B

Allen, Count me in!

good "point"...!

OK, newest question; theres no right answer, should the jig go in the vise "hook up", or "hook down", meaning wrap skirt mat'l from backside of hook, or underside or inside of hook? Thx

Thats a good idea about using rings instead of collars. Does anyone know of any good videos on the topic?

Thanks, I'll give that a try, what about leaving the tabs "uncut" til I'm done, THEN trimming?

I need some pointers please! I'm just starting wire tying jigs and am having a heck of a time getting the skirts not to roll while wrapping the wire. What am I doing wrong? Jig is in vise, Skirt is laid over jig, etc. When I go to wrap the wire, the skirt wants to roll with the wire and then the whole thing tries to get wrapped up in itself!! AAARRRGGGHHH!!! When they're done right, I love the finished product, but ... Anybody?

I'm also in the market for some of these... If anyone knows of their whereabouts, please give them up!

I'm just starting making and painting my own lures, spinnerbaits specifically. I'm trying to come up with the best set of "base colors", both airbrush and powder. If anyone has some go-to colors, if you would help me out I'd appreciate it. This is too expensive to buy the wrong colors right out of the gate! Thx, b

STILL LOOKING!!!

Ashley, Do you still have these? If so, I'm interested in the 3/8 oz. size. I'm just getting started making my own spinnerbaits. Let me know... Thx, brad

Do you still have these? If so, I'm interested!! let me know asap! thx, brad

I'm just getting started at making my own spinner baits and I'm hoping that someone out there has a used 1/4 OR 3/8 oz. hidden weight spinner bait mold they'd consider selling. If anyone has anything that might fit this bill, let me know. I'm also interested in trading for nice fishing reels for the right equipment. I'm gonna need it all (wires, blades, hooks, etc.) Thanx! brad
