What size SS wire works best for twisting my own line ties/screw eyes? I tried it with .042 but it didn't work too well. Thanks, Mark

Anything wrong with using taxidermy grade airbrush paints on lures? In particular acrylic polytranspar? They have so many nice natural colors and lots of shimmer or iridescent options. Opinions? Thanks, Mark

What do you guys use to backflush your airbrush when cleaning? I've been using a sponge to cover the end but would like something more efficient. Thanks, Mark

Love them. Look like real fish catchers.... mark -
Looks great..,. did you have to put quite a bit of ballast in it to reduce bouyancy? My limited experience with balsa cranks is there is too much bouyancy. After deflecting off cover it rises too quickly. -
mohawk, what do you use to backflush? how do you plug the end of the nozzle to backflush? thanks, mark

thanks guys

What tools do you guys use to clean out the bowl of your airbrush and also to backflush? Ive just been using a bristle brush and sponge but there must be a better way. thanks, mark

To this point ive only made my lures with the line tie off located on the nose of the lure but i would like to try mounting it on a diving lip. What are the general rules on how these two setups affect lure action? thanks, mark

Are the front two wire loops one assembly or are they seperate? What is your technique for getting your tie off loop recessed into your diving lip? thanks -
Anyone use Golden High Flow Acrylics? How do they work in an airbrush? Good for lure making? thanks, mark

I'm currently using createx water based airbrush colors. Looking for some more color options in a water based paint, no solvents. What do you reccomend? thanks, mark

This is my 2nd Alewife Trolling Plug prototype. Did a single hook on this one with circuit board lip. It swims great....Poplar with foiled sides, createx paint, etex clear coat, through wired....

Had a blast painting my first Nemo. Guess i was a little anxious as i forgot to water test and weight this popper before painting! Gives me an excuse to do another one. Found this paint pattern easy after some help from guys on the forum. I base coated with white then pearl white. Taped off the areas where i wanted white with electrical tape cut into 1/4" strips. Painted the lure with flourescent orange createx, then edged the masked area with black, did some basic gill and eye detail and done. Next one im gonna do a discreet scale detail over the white and do more detail on head area. Mark -
Got my order of circuit board sheets from ePlastics last week. I ordered .032 and .060. .032 seems a little light but may be just right for smaller stuff. Nice stuff. Just made my first lip with .060 and found it easy to work with.....Mark

When You Think You've Done Everything Right And Still Get Fisheyes?
MarkNY replied to MarkNY's topic in Hard Baits
I think i just created a thin spot with my brush. Second coat took care of it..... With foil, ive been doing a coat of etex before painting. Also been spraying a coat of etex crystal clear before doing that first coat of etex. Works for me....
