  1. I wanna see a swim vid of this beauty
  2. Thanks for the reply’s everyone, this is all helpful info to get where I’m trying to go
  3. Hey everyone, So my quest to pick up some pvc to start carving is running into one basic problem where i can’t seem to source anything with some actual thickness to be able to make like a wide body glide bait. The limited amount of stuff that my Lowe’s and Home Depot carry would be fine if i wanted to make some small cranks and narrow baits. So what methods if any are there for bonding multiple pieces of pvc trim together that would hold up to the abuse of a large fish without separating? thanks for any info love the forum
  4. Well since I’m brand new here it’s probably obvious that i am trying to add lure making to my list of hobbies. Over the past year i have been slowly adding tools to be able to fully make my own baits (primarily wanting to make my own swimbaits) picked up a very lightly used HD belt sander, bandsaw and drill press a while back. Added a set of flexcut knives recently and the wife got me the only real thing i asked for Christmas which is a brand new shiny iwata eclipse hp-Cs. Lots of little supplies have shown up in the last couple of weeks thanks to amazon and lure parts, really hoping to have my first swimbait done here in a couple of weeks. l bought my first boat about 2 years ago which was a old Lowe hustler pro 1754 aluminum mod v, and since bringing it home i pretty much spent the last two years completely rebuilding it gutted everything and did a full Jon to bass conv3rsion which took me Damn near a year alone so I’d say there for a long time boat building was my only hobby lol. used to be into sport bikes like it was life itself started on a 2000 r6, then came a Honda Cbr 954 (best machine I’ve ever owned) and then the last was a 2006 cbr 1000 (love me some Honda’s) a near fatal accident took my love for bikes away in 2013 and i haven’t ridden since. I don’t think i would ever get back on a sport ride because of my injuries would make it very uncomfortable, but i think one day i may pick up a cruiser since the wife loves to ride And having a rider on a sport isn’t exactly pleasurable. Other then the limited time i get on the water to fish i generally like taking on diy projects. Honestly the only reason i don’t add a lot of hobby’s to the list is simply because of limited funds. I dream of one day having a big shop and adding a lot of general machinery both auto and wood working, I’d love to make my own parts so CNc And 3D printing interest me a lot, and I’ve always wished ever since i started riding bikes that i could weld so if i ever get the funds I’d love a tig setup because to me the ability to weld aluminum is what I’ve always wanted (the best metal imo)
