  1. OK, there wasn't much input from me or maybe I didn't use the proper words (sorry, english is not my native language ) I've been doing quite a few hard baits which work fine, usually 3D designing it, then printing the master, sanding it if needed, pouring the mold then last step PU resin. All good so far, my crankbaits are wobbling just fine, the jointed lures are having the S movement so I think I'm doing it right But for this kind of "rolling" action I've been trying a few with no success. So I only wanted to ask for some advice about the bibs (angle, size) and weights (how many of them, position). I know it depends also on the shape and size of the lure so this is what I am trying to achieve: After casting the PU resin for the prototype, I found (hopefully) the proper bib for it. A bit of weight where the black point is and for fast retrieval is seems to have nice rolling action. But I am not that confident because I tried it in calm water with no current. Front view: So...should I take care of some other aspects to make this work fine on the river? Thanks in advance! JB
  2. Hello people, I can get (probably) to the desired results after some trials and errors, wasting 3D printer filament, mold silicone and PU resin so I would like to ask here how to do it properly from the beginning. The achievement would be to have a rolling (?) action instead of wobbling . From what I've read, the bib should have a vertical position or close to that but I don't know where to put the weights so the lure won't just go straight without action or worse, turning on the side. I also may be wrong about the bib :-) Can I get some advice, please? Thanks in advance!JB
  3. Hi, Is this P/U board easier to shape, sand and carve than Forex, please? (I suppose they are not the same material :D)
