  2. Good advice. I'm gonna try that next. Thanks Mark.
  3. Also as you can see in the pics, it seems to be off gassing around the eyes
  4. Hi there folks. Having some issues with my Alumifoam cranks and hope someone can help. This is my process: pour Alumifoam in a 2 part mold. After it dries, there's a mushroom of excess foam where my pour holes were. I sand those down flush and fill in the "scar" with wood putty. Sand that, prime, paint, and do 3 coats of etex on a drying wheel. What happens next is what I believe is off-gasing. My paint bubbles under the etex and then cracks or splits(see pics). I just did a batch and sealed the foam with spar urethane like my cedar lures. Haven't painted or applied etex yet. Any help or suggestions?

  6. Check out Our Finnish friend Mikko on http://solarfallbaits.blogspot.com. You can spend hours admiring his work and he also posts tutorials on YouTube.
  7. When you use thicker diameter wire for Muskie lures, you might wanna use heavier nails. They won't pull or bend as easy when you shape that thick wire in your jig.
  8. I've tried GST for a few months now and my baits still have a bad chemical smell to them. Stinks the whole box up. It annoyed me so bad that I went back over all my baits with D2T. Anyone else getting that?
  9. Check out the products at makelure.com or aluminite.com.
