Made a virtual model of the bait in fusion 360... then created the template around it -
Print it out and then shoot some paint..
-
11 x 8 Is my build plate..
-
It’s capabilities far outstrip my own... I’ve barely know what I’m doing.. I spend a lot of time on YouTube watching the tutorials and seeing if the techniques can be applied to my lure obsession ..
-
What kind of lure and what kind of pattern?
-
Fusion 360 from autocad
-
Not a bait... but the 3d template used to paint #7 flicker shad perch patterns.
-
Woohoo... looks great.. -
With the fusion 360 modeling and the live sculpting features, it only takes about an hour, as long as you have 3 good pictures and a micrometer..

My thoughts too -
It wouldn’t be too difficult... all depends on what kind of pattern you wanted..
-
Crawdad templates.
-
It can be done, But for that service I charge a small fee for the service.. I have done wiggle warts, s-cranks, 1.5 square bills, 2.5 square bills and DD, and I am working on some others that I am not familiar with, but they look like deep diving rapalas.. but I am not sure.

Check around your town or city. There are places called "MakerSpace" clubs, they have a variety of 3d printers, along with a bunch of other cool toys, that can be rented for a nominal fee. https://spaces.makerspace.com/ This website will have directory of any MakerSpace that may be available in your area. -
yep.. wrap around the lure being painted, similar to the same concept of the plastic stencils formed with heat and a vacuum ..

I have been playing with Fusion 360 for a bit and have designed a few lure bodies with the program. I have seen some cool templates printed with a 3D printer, thought I would give it a try. These are for an undefined pumpkinseed pattern. Link to gallery image: http://www.tackleunderground.com/community/gallery/image/17764-crankbait-templates/

Second attempt to design a two piece body that can be printed out with a standard 3d printer. The lip is a separate file as well. If you want the STL files, PM me and I can email them to you. -
Just some basic crappie patterns. Not originals, I just follow other peoples' ideas. -
That and I am probably going to use some sort of tool to hold the bait steady.. what I have at the moment isn't very user friendly and freehand isn't a good idea.. thanks for the tip.. I figured a stencil was the way to go, trying to make some out of some PETG clear sheets, but they have not arrived from amazon yet.. and since I live in Alaska, these baits will head to Texas in the next few weeks, hopefully the bass will not mind the uneven lateral lines too much.. ha -
It’s just about ready...
-
Some basic shad in multiple bait styles. I still need practice on the lateral lines.
-
That’s awesome.... glad it worked for you.
