What is the best kind of wood to make a popper?

I am in college, and I want to buy a decent airbrush, but as you all who have been to college know, when in college, you have little money. So I want something that may last a while, but something that is not to expensive. Thanks all

I am going to make a Popper from balsa. Do I need to put any lead in it? IF I do where should I put it? Thanks guys.

hey man search the site, there are posts explaining how to make your own 3d eyes.

I had an idea I thought was awesome a few years ago. Then Storm came out with something like my idea. The idea was that someone would find a way to dip a wooden (painted) lure in some clear melted plastic and then it may be more realistic feeling to the fish. I dont know if this is a dumb idea or if someone has already tried it. I just thought it was an interesting idea. Let me know if anyone decides to try it. Id be really interested to know everyones thoughts.

Has anyone tried making a scent for their soft plastics? I just finished a bottle of contact cleaner and thought that may be an easy way to shoot scent on some baits, but I don't want to buy any. Any one have any recipes?

I made this popper and I have not used it yet, but this is my first bait and I wanted to know if any of you had any ideas of how I could make it better. Thanks. http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s83/whibley19/DSC00590.jpg

Hey all I made my first bait that I really tried to make well, its a popper. I also did a repaint of a Rebel Wee-R. It was an old purple and white ugly lure. Let me know what you think. They are both in my version of blue gill painted with a brush and acrylics. http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s83/whibley19/DSC00591.jpg http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s83/whibley19/DSC00590.jpg

I just finnished a few lures and I have know idea of what size of hooks to use. Any ideas on how to decide? The bait is a popper just over 2 1/2" and one is 2 1/2" I have a #4 excaliber feathered skirt, but dont know the size. Thanks
