I just use nails the heads on nails come in all sorts of sizes and you always have some in the house dip the head of the nail and press on lure presto instant eye, let dry then use a smaller diameter nail for the pupil

does anyone know of where to get or even know if they have a salad spoon mold anywhere similar to lunker city's salad spoon http://www.lunkercity.com/ any help would be great guys thanks Troy

thanks alot guys

was it with the models and model paint at walmart or in the craft section? thanks Troy

where do you guys get your decal paper, I am in canada and I am having a tough time finding it up here

a guy told ne who builds rods and baits to get a propane torch and just flash the bait or rod guide no so close to burn and apparently the co 2 from the burning will pull the bubbles out apparently the epoxy manufacturers told hime to do this to sove his problem

will 5 minute epoxy work by lepage ?, I am having a problem finding devcon or e-tex were I live, but they have alot of other epoxies ie. plastic wood/metal ones not sure which to buy

is createx gloss clear coat good for the finishing coat on lures, applying it 3 to 4 times will it be durable enough or should i just use epoxy troy

I am talking about the hologram tape you you can but at luremaking.com it says you can apply to crankbaits as weel as spoon and it already has scales on it

anyone used the hologram foil tape on stick baits or cranks, how did it turn out, how did you apply meanning a strip down side or cut to fit bait and wrap, would you get the same look as mass produced hologram baits on the market troy

any of you guys ever or from luremaking.com they have unglued cranks/poppers/topwater lures kit comes with all hardware and you get enough for 10 baits in each kit for $14.99 is the quality any good some feedback on the product and service would be great Troy

tried it last night and got it working pretty godd just a little playung with pressure and paint did the trick. will post one when it is complete thanks alot guys troy

so thinning createx how thin roughly, 1 paint 4 water, 1:3, 1:5 just a rough estimate and I will work on it

I will give it a try again tonight and report back, I think my problem is air pressure the paint is not atomizing properly thanks guys

I recently switch from enamel paint thinned with laquer to acrylic (createx) since it seems to be popular and great colours I cannot get same finish with this paint as compared to enamel with comes out decent like a spray bomb my paints splatters a bit and is inconsistent do I use higher air pressure or lower? do i thin or use mix in botte (acrylic thinner or water) I use a syphon fed external mix brush any tips on how to get a gret finish would be gret thanks troy
