BobP Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 Propman, cutting lips from polycarbonate aka Lexan sheet is so easy, particularly for a coffin shaped lip for which you have a specimen to trace from. A pair of metal shears, a Dremel sanding drum and felt polishing cylinder is all that's needed to roll your own. I think it's unlikely that you will find a stock pre-made lip with the exact same size and shape. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky Glenn Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 The first one I found was in the 2016 Musky Shop catalogue. It is number 21 on page 144. The only difference that I can tell is it has rounded corners instead of coffin, this could easily be fixed if necessary. I would call and verify size as I just measured from the book. Good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 It makes sense to make your own lips, it is the easiest operation in the whole process. It also means that you can make a lip to suit your lure design rather than designing a a lure to fit the lip. It is a bit like the tail wagging the dog.

Musky Glenn Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 There could be reasons for buying instead of making your own lips. If it is a one off replacement for one lure, at $.49 cents for one lip, it would be hard to recover the cost of tools and materials to make one lip. If it is a one off situation it truely would be a tail wagging the dog situation. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 MG - true enough, if you don't have the most basic of tools for the job then you have no option but to order a lip. I keep forgetting that TU is NOT just a lure building site. I tend to see things only from my perspective. Dave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
