Where can you buy the silica powder? I do like the HD Sink Additive but its just to costly. Especially when you are selling baits.

Thanks for the replies guys! I have a blending block from Bass Tackle and like it but sometimes I have a little trouble shooting with it. I was searching and saw this and thought it was very interesting. Anybody know who made it, and why they stopped making it? Looks like it should have been pretty easy to handle.

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find this nozzel. Been looking but no luck. Any help would be awesome.

Wow...you guys are great!!! Thank you so much for the information. I have heard great things about this site and decided to join and already I am really glad that I did. The lures that I have made so far are from the book "Making Wooden Fishing Lures" by Rich Rousseau. In my opinion this book is great for the beginner, and every lure that I have made from it has worked perfectly. I did find out that there are little things that are not mentioned in the book that I found out by searching and just plain old trial and error. Ben....I have considered making my own lure templates via the information you have given and I think its a great idea. I went onto Rapala and the pictures on their website are perfect for doing what you mentioned. Just a quick question for you...how do you detirmine how much weight to add to them and where to apply them. Is it just trial and error? Should I just look at similar templates and try to mimic where the weight was added on those and incorporate into the new template, and just make adjustments based on my preference? DieMai...Awesome templates. I have actually been looking for a banana lure template and one of the links gave me 2. These links are perfect! Vodkaman...I like that idea of having a library. If you have a library already would you be willing to share? Again, thank you guys for all your help. You guys are the best and I will be using this site for any questions rather than getting scammed by an ebook!

Hello everyone! I just joined the site and was hoping someone could help me. I am just starting out making wooden lures and have purchase a couple of very good books on the subject. I have made a few lures already and they have worked perfectly. What I am looking for are more templates but have been unsuccessful find anything that are smaller than the lures I have made so far. I am really looking for templates for 3" or smaller. I have also been looking for suspending lure templates but no luck. I did try downloading an ebook that was supposex to include 24 templates but was kind of screwed by the person that owns the ebook. Short story was I paid and the link I was given was broken and I never received what I was supposed to. What I was wondering is can someone point me in the direction where I can download free templates, or does anyone have any templates they could possibly share? Thanks in advance for any help you guys can provide.
