Yak_addict_785 Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) Surely I'm not the first one to think of this. I am new to this site and to lure making in general, and just recently started building bass jigs from scratch and realized I had everything I needed except a skirting tool. So I came up with this simple solution with an ink pen. Used a piece of copper wire to pull the silicone tabs through the pen.

Yak_addict_785 Posted January 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) Thank you budman! P.s. the bigger the pen the better. I was able to get 2 tabs through this particular pen, but it was a bit of a challenge. I wonder if there would be any way to make a sharpie or some other type of marker work?!

snyiper Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 Why not just use brass or aluminum tubing from hobby store or a piece of new brake line from auto parts store? Copper could be used and the end tapered in some I would think as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
