dochollow Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 well i have gotten my painting skills to the point i am comfortable. i took the plunge & tried my hand at carving a dt6 . just useing matls. on hand,{pine, .115 lexan, split shot} it floats & dives [3 1/4" split shot for ballast] great,just does not have the wobble i was looking for i have been reading the archives untill im . my question is in order of importance what has the most effect on wobble ? i made my bill @ 1/8" larger than the production bill , thinking more bill = more wobble . how many did you scrap before you got your first ?
