Mr.J. Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 I'm not sure I can properly explain how this was made but here goes anyways It's a motor off of an old chicken roaster, it runs almost exactly at 6 rpm and holds 12 lures, 6 on one side and 6 on the other, in total and are of 4 inch lenghts The lures are held in place using a compression fit. The screws are held by using inserts and a nylon nut on the end Not sure what else to say so bring on the questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KcDano Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Certainly looks well constructed a tidy unit indeed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike-A-Pike Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 That's very nice design. I notice the bolts with nylock nuts on the side that tightens down on the crank bait to keep in place... Does the other side use only the wooden frame to hold the wire/hook in place? Any chance that that area may require additional reenforcement to prevent too much ware? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.J. Posted December 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Bruce I have small holes to keep the lure from moving around, look closely at the last picture, I think you'll see what I mean. So far this has worked very well. There's no need to reef on the bolt so there's very little stress on the wood. The bolts are there because the unit needs to be expandable to hold 6 inch lures that I am developing, thus remove 4 bolts and I get to start all over again.
