I use House of Color, automotive paints and I have to say the fumes are nasty, require lacquer thinner to clean brushes which also stinks, and above all else, if you are using a spray booth, MAKE SURE it is an intrinsically safe booth, i.e. that there is no possibility of sparks in the moptor igniting the flamable fumes....BOOM BOOM goes your shop....

You didnt mention what kind of wood you used. Try heavy hard wood for the front section and go lighter as you go back. Make sure you "grain" the front section, meaning put the heaviest grain on the bottom of the body. then weight it after you assemble it, at least for the first one. Also don't weight any of the middle sections, just thwe front and the tail if you need it.

Hello to all here at TU, I just wanted to stop in and say hello, it's been quite a while since I have been here, things are very different. I am BigRock from BigRock Custom Lures. Much of my creative side came from inspiration and help contained within these pages, and maybe now I can give some back.
