AlamOso Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 I made this dryer which has worked well for some time now. It is really overkill for curing lures. I am designing a production model (not so beefed-up) that may be about 90 days away. The problem with this configuration is that it costs a small fortune to build. I would very much appreciate gathering your opinions as to if you-all think that hobbiest luremakers would be interested in equipment like this, and how much most would be willing to cough-up for it. I go into a few more details at www.rivercitylures.50megs.com/mach/rotr/rotr.htm Thanks, Garrett (formerly I.B. Cranking) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlamOso Posted May 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Hey Geneo, I've been real busy lately and haven't devoted much time to development of the product. I haven't forgotten about it, though. Do you think there would be a large interest in a device like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funny farm Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Looks well made . Doest it wobble about 12 inches in each dirrection like mine ? Mine is made from wood and I have to screw it down or it will walk across the floor . I just put a new motor on mine and it sounds like a jet taking off , but it will spin my odd lures which are up to 18 inches long and wieghing around 3 pounds . Talk about nerveous waiting to hear that well know smack of a lure falling off drying machine . Remember , if you get dirt in it while its still wet just sprinkle glitter on it . Not that I have . What are you looking at selling these units for ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlamOso Posted June 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 The one I made is overkill. I've got some ideas of how to strip it down a little, but don't want to sacrifice the quality. I think that I would have to charge in the $125 to $150 range to make it worth the effort. I don't really see a large market for these that could make the costs go down by mass production. I'm sure that China could make make my price look like a joke, if there is such a market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
