dpalinsk Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 A friend of mine (Carl) helped me build this lure turner/dryer. Actually, I helped design it and he built it. I wanted it to be multi-purpose, something that could dry lures and jigs. We were looking at other turners on that Interweb thingy, when we (Carl) came up with the idea to use a spring fitted into a beveled area on one of the wheels. It was a good idea and it works well. It's whisper quite and runs smoothly. Carl took lots of pictures while making and incorporated those with his notes on how he built it a PDF file. It's too large to post here, but I would be happy to email to any who would like a copy. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 The spring is a great idea for holding the lures. Bravo! X3 That is a beautiful build. Be sure to put some kind of paper or plastic at the bottom to catch the drips, so you don't mess up that beautiful machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelly Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 That spring is great idea I think I might have to add that to one of my toaster ovens to cure jig heads. Might help if I made it like a rotisery and keep the powder paint I get carried away with from curing uneven. Thanks and enjoy your new toy.

AZ Fisher Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 Guys, this is a five year old thread and the OP has not been on here in 6 months. Whackett, if you want to reach the OP, send him a PM, that way he gets an email notification he has a message. There are several other posts on turners. (Search lure rotisserie) The motor used looks like a 5-6 rpm, 120v microwave motor, they are available on ebay or I find them used, cheap at a local electronics supplier. Hope this helps.

whackett Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 I did a search and noting came up except this one my fault for not noticing it was so old and you can't search lure rotisserie when you don't realize you can use a rotisserie motor as the power which i found on another site. Thanks for the info on the PM i'm still new to these forums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ Fisher Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 No worries, the search function has a mind of it's own. Here's some other threads pertaining to turners. Maybe there's some info in here that can help... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I retired about three years ago and it probably got left behind. I'm not sure what this motor came out of, but I found it on eBay. As mentioned above, a microwave motor will work and I have a spare one laying around in case I need it. I've attached pic so you could see the motor specs.

Rick0471 Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 This was done with some small screws, Wood, a bbq rotisserie, and the bracket to hold a chicken lol. I think I have 40 bucks in it took an hour to build. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apdriver Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 Hey, that spring is the cats meow for jigs. I added a couple to my rotisserie dryer and increased my production potential about twofold or more. Great idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
