mark poulson Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 This is an interesting one: http://s1294.photobucket.com/user/Stephen_Ashcraft/media/fixedblade_zps2d40fa2c.jpg.html It feeds the blank through the square tube. The saw does not rock. The blank spins and bounces to make the bait. That must be an interesting machine. Too bad there aren't more photos.

robalo01 Posted June 28, 2014 Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 I am looking into making a crankbait duplicator that cuts baits from foam board with a hot wire (or rod, blade etc). I tested with a make-shift hot wire cutter and it very well, albeit a little slow. Any ideas of what to use for a cutting heated object? I have seen hot wire cutters made with 110V. You run a 100W light bulb in the circuit. I wonder if it would allow me to use a thicker wire and cut faster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
