tylerd1994 Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 lurecraft has this soft plastic gun that makes little tails or stripes and dots on soft plastics and i was wondering if anyone had a picture of this because the site doesn't have one.

alsworms Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 I have yet to talk to anyone who has had success with this gun, including myself. Complete waste of time and money......if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tylerd1994 Posted August 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 i was just wondering if it was possible to use a hot glue gun to inject crappie jigs in a mold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc1003 Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 I bought the lure craft gun, and other than coming with the mold to make the plastic sticks with it was the same gun that I saw at big lots for $5. I tried to use it once, didnt turn out real well. Then I couldnt get the wooden push rod back out and ended up throwin the thing away. Others may have had better luck with it then me but I dont suggest waistin the money on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Bait Co. Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 I got one from Graingers it is a better one than the one you can get at Lure Craft. It was also $10 cheaper. I haven't used it yet its still in the package. I would get one from the hobby store they are a lot cheaper and if it don't work your only out $5 to $ 10.

FishAction Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 The lurecraft gun has a control in the electric cord to limit the wattage going to the gun. The heat control is just like a stove eye - too hot burns the plastic. Any glue gun will burn the plastic without some way to control the heat level. A quality gun, no cheap bargain ones, combined with an electrical control will make various dots, stripes, etc. It's all in the heat, pressure applied to the plastic and the tip.
