I thought I'd add my lure dryer to the list, not for its great beauty or any outstanding features, but simply because of its...simplicity. The craft store provided the wheels for a buck a piece that hold 8 gator-clipped 3/16 dowels. The clips are from Wal-Mart and are crimped on, and the dowels are simply snugged into their 3/16th holes. The clips hold better than I thought they would; I've turned some 1 ounce poppers with no problem, and they're fine for bass-size lures. More wheels can be added quickly and easily; I'm working on a wheel with larger dowls to suspend large lures off of them between springs. Motor and shaft is a 20$ Wal-Mart rotisserie. No glue is used anywhere and it works just fine. It went together in a couple of hours including head-scratching time, and with a rotten back, I don't move quickly! I thought maybe this might inspire some guys who hadn't gotten around to building one yet.
