capecodsmallie Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Has anyone tried using something besides salt in the plastic? I was just curious if there might be something more easy to work with.Something that might suspend in the plastic better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senkosam Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 If you use a cheap coffee bean grinder to make the salt as fine as flour, the suspension is easier, but the color is more opaque. The larger the crystal, the greater the translucent quality, but the harder to keep suspended. I'm going to try a barium suspension which is already powder, but weighs more than NaCl and requires less. The other thing that I will try, is to use a heavier than usual salt- impregnated, laminated half and a clear/flake or colored half. Another other option is to pour a heavier, salt-impregnated half or 1/3 toware the tail and a clear or translucent-colored front half. The hook will most likely weigh down the front and the salt, the back, but the two-tone will be there. Who says salt must be through the entire worm?
