I need help with topcoat on a jointed/articulated bait
Kris replied to Judbrockfishing's topic in Hard Baits
Does the Rustoleum Clear hold up as good as Devcon epoxy which I'm currently using? -
What is the best way to attach a skirt to a crankbait (like in attached pic) and keep it from coming off or moving? Pictures would be appreciated.

After researching for a printer below $500 I purchased a Anycubic i3 Mega.

Any input of the minimum amount of air flow (CFM) needed to pull out overspray through filter?
-
Thanks ! for posting the pics. Do you think the filter placement works best when at a angle or does it matter?
-
I assume you use this type of fan? Do you have pic of how you secured it to your booth?
-
Look at Fusion 360 for software.

Looking for info and insight from those who built their own spray booth. Will be spraying acrylics only. Booth will be around 20" (L) x 18" (H) x 16" (D) and looking to use an exhaust fan to pull the air through a filter to catch the overspray. Not sure about the fan size needed. Interested to know what kind of fan you use in your booth. I seen where people have used computer fans, bathroom exhaust fans, inline duct fans, etc. I've read where the fan needs to pull at least 200 CFM.

What is the diving depth of a 2 1/2" SPRO RkCrawler MD 55 crankbait?

I like using minnow nets you find at fishing dept. in Wal-Mart, Bass Pro, Academy. I just cut the netting off the handle.

Been using Devcon 2T epoxy for years. I usually just brush on one coat.

Does anyone know where you can purchase blanks like the one in the pic attached. It has the holographic look INSIDE the body NOT on the outside.

I'm in need of the measurement of either a Cedar Run Outdoors or Dinger Baits 1.5 square bill. I 'm out of town and don't have any of my unpainted 1.5s with me. I look on supplier's sites but didn't find what I need. I need the measurement in inches from nose to tail (no lip), from top to belly. Pic shows what I need. Thanks.

I decided a few months ago I wanted to learn CAD in order to create 3D stencils for painting my baits. I choose Fusion 360 and had no prior experience with CAD before this. Fusion 360 is free and powerfully. I won't scratch the surface of what Fusion 360 can do. I watched several YouTube videos to learn the basics. I ended up watching mostly videos by Lars Christensen. He is very good at explaining how to use Fusion 360. Here is a link to one of his videos for beginners... https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=fusion+360

Did you get the Color Shift on sale? I haven't been able to find Color Shift for less than $3.99 for 2 oz. bottle and that's at Wal-Mart. JoAnn's Fabric were I am has them listed between $4.99-5.99 / 2 oz. bottle. -

What percentages do you use with the water, windex and future floor finish? The windex is ammonia free? -
Where can you get good blade baits to paint? Those that paint blade baits do you just repaint over them or get blanks ready to paint?
-
Question for those who use Folk Art craft paint ... what do you use to thin it with and percentages? I've read on other sites where some use windex, floor wax or water. I'm assuming the windex needs to ammonia free. Want to try spraying some of Folk Art Color Shift paints. I'm using a Iwata HP-CS AB.
-
Question for those who have used these inks in their painting .... I read when these are used it was stated that Pledge Floor Care was sprayed on the bait to seal the inks. Is this step necessary? Will clear coating with D2 or KBS mess with the inks if you skip the Pledge step?
-
Welcome to the board! You can learn A LOT here. From what I can see from the pic looks like you can start with a holographic blank. To see what I'm talking about look at the holo blanks at Predator Bass Baits ... http://www.predatorbassbaits.com/id69.html Can you post a bigger picture so its easier to see?

Have you tried this yet with square bills? Tried it on square bill with no luck.

Blue Painter's tape. I get mine at Wal-Mart or Lowe's. Low tack and works great. Never had a problem with.

I've never used etex before so I don't have any experience on how long to leave them on the drying wheel. I use Devcon 2 epoxy (going to try Bob Smith epoxy next) and usually leave my baits on the drying wheel between 4-5 hours. I than turn the drying wheel off and leave them on the wheel overnight to continue to fully harden overnight.
