body consistency?

Recommended Posts

OK, I'm wondering if any of ya'll have any ideas on to how to efficienctly and consistently get a rounded top and bottom on a flat sided crankbait?

I'm hoping to at least get some brainstorming ideas!

here's what ive come up with so far (including ideas from the board)

turn on a lathe somehow, but i've no lathe..

set up some kind of table with a half round router bit..

file using a concave file

use a half of pvc pipe with sandpaper inside..

none of these seem to be THE answer...any ideas i'm missing?

thanks for the board and the help!

With any method that I know of,other than

a router, will not be identical. All require

a good eyeball. One of the fastest is carving

with a good sharp carving knife and then

finish up by hand sanding. Lincoya taught

me how to carve a round surface from a square

one.
