I'm liking the twisted wire...sometimes a solid through the body wire. The wire is easier to get o-rings on. Like @Fishwhittlersaid, once it epoxied in place...the bond-to-wood is stronger than the wood itself.

I actually have one of those...its for threading a sewing needle. Perfect...thanks. later... I went and got the threader and its a lot shorter than what they have on TW. So...thanks for the GREAT tip...its on order. -

I was also thinking along those lines... I think it would make a Beaver enhanced with a couple appendages. ...along with slowing the fall and creating turbulence. -
I looking to add rubber strands (like on a spinner bait skirt) into various plastics baits. Not looking for them to be part of the mold. The lure would have some resemblance to O.S.P. dice...except not look like a die. Just curious if anyone has done this and what they used to needle in the strands.

Makes sense...what I have seems to run pretty good in the water.

Allen...thanks for the input. I was also wondering about that. This is how it lays in the mold...and have thought about modifying the mold. Is it common to bend those wires at the head?
-
What is the length / # of that spacer?
-
You should be able to click on My eBay (on the top ) and click Purchase History.
-
What the length you using for those...and where did you get em.

I'm making a few spinner baits and was wondering about the spacing between the blades. Currently I'm using a bead, 2cm tube and another bead...and that seems to work pretty well. Just curious as to what others are doing and why.

Does anyone have a recipe for the motor-oil that when looking down on it, it looks green and when you hold it up it look translucent brown? Like the Charlie Brewer Slider Motor Oil color.
-
Good to know....what about when there's a bunch of bubbles...Is that getting close to burn?
-
What does it look like when you "burn" your plastics? I keep reading about it and figure I probably have done it and maybe didnt know. What are the ramifications of burning a batch? Is it ruined?
