Hughesy Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 I've got a buddy who is in the vinyl sign biz and I asked him if he could make some holographic scales with his vinyl cutting machine. He said it is difficult to cut things that small but he did it and they are awesome. They come on a sheet and you just cut out a piece the shape of the lures, stick them on and then peel off the backing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Brush Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 That is an awesome scale pattern Tim. Your friend could also set up sheets of pectoral fins and gill plates? A new product for lure builders? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughesy Posted December 24, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 I'll see if he wants to do some more and what he will charge. He just kinda did the first couple sheets to see if he could even do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COLOR ME FISHIN Posted December 28, 2003 Report Share Posted December 28, 2003 cool...............Lucky Craft sells sheets of rub on scales I have used but they tend to be a little guady looking and a pain to apply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B and D Lures Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 That is a great looking scale pattern. If is as easy to put on as you say. your friend has got a new luremaking product that would be a great seller. I'll tell you what, if he can make these in bulk and sell them, I'll put a big order in. They look great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
