Do-it has one like that called the weedless casting jig

That's just generally a nice looking jig.

Thanks for sharing your techniques, thoughts and design of your bait. Very, very interesting from an engineering standpoint. I also enjoyed seeing how you worked the stainless with your jig to make the homemade harnesses. Great instructional technique and I appreciate the time and effort in its making. Two thumbs up!!!

Sorry, I lost the train somewhere in your first post. 5 min epoxy will turn a very unattractive brown from UV exposure and it is only water resistant, not waterproof like the 30 min variety. When repairing guide wraps, I sometime use Devcon Two Ton thinned with a few drops of denatured alcohol and it has worked fine and hardens much more quickly than Flexcoat. Flexcoat is a good wrap epoxy but it’s expensive compared to some alternatives. I think you could use Envirotex Lite and get as good a result for a fraction of the price. Both contain solvent that enables them to soak into the guide wrap threads and the work times for both are long enough that one batch will let you coat all the guides on a rod.

Very nice
