  1. Someone at the patent office is not doing their job! Dave
  2. I thought this was sarcasm. an under rated form of humour. But, then I noticed that this was your first post, which makes this a very thoughtful post, getting right to the crux of the problem - Welcome Dave
  3. I have had problems in the past when my 'cookies' and history were over filled, even though other web sites were working perfectly. Do a Google search on 'how to'. I did mine a few weeks ago. After clearing, log out and restart computer. Dave
  4. I am not aware of a first post delay, but it would not surprise me. The site has been plagued for several months with multiple spam from China. You should give it a day or so and try again, if that fails, report back here and I or someone will help you. Dave
  5. As Aulrich points out, tow eye location is very important, and should be a part of your experimentation. Dave
  6. In my early days, I looked hard for a formula for lip length and width, it was the engineer in me. But alas, I failed. A sharp edge on the front face gives a stronger action, not so sure it is enough for you to notice. The thing is that every feature affects lip length; length and width of back, position and angle of lip, position of COG, and any other feature that I fail to mention. I make the lip a tad too big and trim it back until I get what I am looking for. Dave
  7. I don't understand their strategy as all it does is annoy people. No one is going to visit their site.
  8. Soda - I believe the problem here is that some people are quoting you numbers by volume rather than weight. The highest percentage MBs I managed was 30% by weight, and I achieved this by injecting the mix using an icing syringe (as in cake making). The consistency was that of English mustard and definitely not pourable. For normal pouring, 12% by weight sounds about right for a maximum. Dave
  9. Lots of PM discussions. Really nice guy, knowledgeable too. RIP Dave
  10. Perhaps a through bolt and a wing nut to increase the clamping force. Dave
  11. I found the Uncle Jim's video. It shouldn't be difficult to knock up a similar jig. The problem is coming up with something to use at the waters edge. Something that attaches to your thigh, maybe velcro. I am probably over thinking the problem as usual Dave
  12. I think this is a case were a photograph is justified. A picture will provide a lot of information. To make a judgement give length and weight of lure. How does it float. What body material, weight and position of ballast weight. You should not be wasting time and effort painting a new lure until you have proven the design works. Dave
  13. Very sorry to hear this news Kurt. I wish you well Dave
