milrtyme24 Posted November 20, 2011 Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 I have been making 5 inch hollow body swimbaits for about 4 months now. I have made a lot of progress and i give most of the thanks to you guys on TU. Ive been using the twin injectors from basstackle to make 2 color swimbaits and they have turned out good. Now i want to airbrush but i cant figure out a good system for holding the baits while i paint. Any ideas would be much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerworm Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 straighten out some large paper clips then make a small "u" in one end to hang in from a wire or coat hanger then put the other end into the tail of the bait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pirkfan Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 I use a piece of dowel that will fit in the hollow cavity of the bait. Hold the dowel, paint, then stick the dowel in a block of styrofoam to dry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
