mark poulson Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Couldn't you test that theory by putting just a bit of silicone on one side edge of a straight running crank's bill and seeing if that produces the hunting action? I say silicone because you can shape it easily when it's wet with a finger dipped in paint thinner, and remove it easily after it sets.

DeHeron Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 I don't think it would cause it to hunt. It would just make it easier to start cranking. Just wondering if it was ever anybodys intent to purposely tilt the lip. Can it be advantagious? Or is it or was it allways just poor quality.Maybe you can get more of a shake. If you don't move the weight forward on a zero degree lip the lip acts like a surfboard. The ones I have made with the weight forward got way to tite for my taste. Not a big fan of the 0 degree lip. But Mark I see what you are saying,that's not a bad idea and it would be easy to do. I'll try anything once and sometimes twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
