kbonanny Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 What type of file is this? I can't seem to open it. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 What type of file is this? I can't seem to open it. Thank you! You can open it with openoffice.org. Open Office is a word program that's available for free download on the web. If you don't have it, and don't want to download it, holler back and I will try to convert it to a Microsoft Word file for you. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbf Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Great tutorial. One thing I did to help with the lead overfill is countersink the top of my holes. Once finished pouring all I do is take a pair of side cutters and cut the excess lead from the coutersunk area off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ifish Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Thanks Gene for the very informative tutorial. I made one with 5/16 holes and your ideas were very helpful. The galvanized nail idea was right on. I am in my 3rd week making wooden crankbaits and finally got a couple painted. Wow, what a learning curve. Thanks for your help!!

kajay920 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Thanks Lincoya, I bought some of these at lurepartsonline.com and have been thinking about making one of these. Thank you for working out the details. I wasn't sure how to get the hook eye into the lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
