head_up_ur_bass Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 Hi, Im new to this site and had a few questions about the do-it jig mold arky style. For those who have used this mold, does this jig stand up or roll over when being fished? Im really, really picky when it comes to that. I would hate to make 40+ jigs and find out they all roll over at a rest. Also, I dont have a sand paper grinder (electric tool) to polish out the head. Is this going to be a problem, or is regular sandpaper going to work? Thanks a lot guys, Patrick:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 (edited) Patrick, You have to ask yourself a couple questions. Do you want a stand up jig or more of a swim jig. The Arky is not a stand up jig. Does it roll over on the sides. No if it falls down on a flat surface. As far as sand paper to smooth out sprues and marks on jigs. My answer is this. Don't use sandpaper, it will take you too long to accomplish what you want, and you will definitely cause a lot of extra lead dust which is not good for your lungs or your skin pores. Get yourself a half round bastard cut file, and a flat file. This is all you need. The file will make quick work of any reminder sprue marks. Also get your self a good pair of gate cutters, this will trim the sprue really close, leaving you with less to file...........PM me your e-mail, and I'll give you some more info to consider if you want Edited March 8, 2009 by cadman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
