Well I am back , again . I see so many new people on here and so many advances in new lure makers !! Plus all the cnc 3 and 4 axis machine stuff that cunfuses me with the smart stuff !?! You all make the machines , I will buy the bodies ! . I am back on the Isle of Palms in South Carolina again . Getting my lure making stuff back .

sorry for delay , anticipation huh ? The winner . .. . . .. Totaled just over 2,300 I never thought it was so many , either means I am lazy and need to get to work , or to stop buying stuff .

I did an inventory today gearing up for the April lure show in Florida to see what I had and what I want to make for the show . I have alot of work ahead of me . Its going to be an awesome show !!! Can anyone guess roughly how many lure bodies are shown ? I was suprised . I did a rough count as most of the bags are labeled as to how many are in their . Its kinda like guessing how many jelly beans are in the jar .

They make treble hooks also the you can slip on , the big thing they are used on is those blade baits , like sonars and silver minnows

I place 100-800 dollar orders from them quite frequently from stamina , the last one for 800 dollars I got some of the stuff in a week , and the order was all sent in i think 4 shipments spanning 3-4 months , they just have the big hardware that no one else does . I guess depending on stamina you have pre think what you need a few months in advance

and also remember if theres any moisture in the createx the clear coat will be unhappy with you .

My store disapeared one day , which didnt bother me . I have sold hundreds and hundreds easily of lures and never had any sold from my store all were from the auction format .
-
Theres some stuff called foto frisk or something that had less adheasion , but its also very thin . Createx says to use a heat gun to dry the colors before the next coat , but dont get it to hot it wil boil . . You can watch the water evaporate out of it , its fun

I have never tried it before , Havent heard it mentioned either . Give it a try and let us know how it does . If you have searched the subjects on the board you have seen this is a great debate on clear coats . E-tex , devcon and flex coat seem to always have their loyal , dedicated , and well quite aggressive opionated users . Give the perfect finish a test and let us know . Clear coat is all personal opion and every body has there favorite !!!

Joe brought up a good point with the flamable paints and chooseing the correct fan . Motors are rated for such , an attic fan like i use is an open motor and shouldnt be used with flamables .

Bulk plastic baits for the tackle show in FL ???
funny farm replied to funny farm's topic in Soft Plastics
cool . thanks you all , it is really a fun thing for the kids . Plus a barrell full of hard baits isnt as fun with all the treble hooks . Trust me I hook myself alot .
