Hughesy 126 Report post Posted December 23, 2003 I've got a buddy who is in the vinyl sign biz and I asked him if he could make some holographic scales with his vinyl cutting machine. He said it is difficult to cut things that small but he did it and they are awesome. They come on a sheet and you just cut out a piece the shape of the lures, stick them on and then peel off the backing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Brush 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2003 That is an awesome scale pattern Tim. Your friend could also set up sheets of pectoral fins and gill plates? A new product for lure builders? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hughesy 126 Report post Posted December 24, 2003 I'll see if he wants to do some more and what he will charge. He just kinda did the first couple sheets to see if he could even do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

B and D Lures 0 Report post Posted December 30, 2003 That is a great looking scale pattern. If is as easy to put on as you say. your friend has got a new luremaking product that would be a great seller. I'll tell you what, if he can make these in bulk and sell them, I'll put a big order in. They look great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
