mkvnmtr Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 I make coast lock and duo lock snaps but I can not seem to explain how. The one important thing is I use round nose pliers not needle nose. Then I just look at what I want to do and copy it. After two or three tries I usually have it down.

atijigs Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Are you asking about the open or R bend on a spinner bait wire? If you are this can easily done with 2 nails. No pliers needed. You have to trim the heads of the nails but you can make quality, uniform spinner bait wires easily.] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
