Hello, I'm a jig and plastics maker but I want to experiment with basswood cranks for personal use. I am going to order some 2 5/16 flat side crankbait bodies from Janns. My question is what size square bill should I get for these? It doesn't say how wide the crank is. I guess the next question would be how deep should I cut the bill slot to fit the bill? The bill lengths are confusing also. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

I just added labels from my label maker and they are on the PVC part for each row.

Here is my Brown Orange Craw Like this?

Everyone's version is different, do you have a picture or another companies Natural Craw your referring to?

I wanted to share my jig rack. Total cost is $15! You can't see them but I have holes drilled in between each of the wood dowel bars, so I will get those and add them and there will be twice as many racks! PVC PIPE AND WOODEN DOWEL ARE THE ONLY MATERIALS. You can see where I taped an order I was doing on the left side. Hope you like!

I am curious about posting skirt colors on here, like they have for the soft plastics with the cookbook. Maybe a picture of your jig and how many of what strands and color. Has this already been done? I'm new to making jigs and just curious.
