wootonc Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 What would be a good wire forming tool to make spinner bait and buzz bait arms and to make twist on the end of the wire. Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLS Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 I have been using one from Hagens and really like it. I've used a couple of cheaper ones over the years and the Hagens is easier to use, more durable, and makes better ties. https://www.barlowstackle.com/Commercial-Wire-Former-P1044.aspx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apdriver Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 + 1 on the Hagens. It's a great piece and worth every penny you'll pay for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 I use the Hagens as well for small and custom orders. However, if I have large quantities or heavy wire it is cheaper to buy them pre-made. Any quantities bigger than 20 I don not bend. Time is money, and it takes awhile to bend these, plus if you buy them then they are all consistently the same size. JMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Hester Posted November 25, 2017 Report Share Posted November 25, 2017 You might want to look at the TwisTech. I'm biased, of course because I own the company that makes them. (But we don't sell them directly. Available at many on-line dealers though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saugerman Posted November 25, 2017 Report Share Posted November 25, 2017 I have the TwisTech, and I love it. Never had any of the others, so can't compare them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
