azsouth Posted January 14, 2020 Report Share Posted January 14, 2020 Never fails to amaze me how much we all abscess over details both critical and non-critical, I just spent 4 hours thinking of how to paint a pattern that I have painted hundreds of times but just a little different this time.

TootsMalone Posted January 14, 2020 Report Share Posted January 14, 2020 looks really good man! Are you using a resin copy to make your new mold or just carving a whole new wooden master? My biggest fear about changing a mold is not being able to carve the same thing twice. Making the two sides of the face match is bad enough.

Making the two sides of the face match is bad enough. Yes I'm reusing the resin mold as a master. It's the same as using wood from my experiance haha. Use a cut out paper template to draw in the gills so you'll have identical gill plate on both sides. Even then it's still a headache haha BigBaitThirty and TootsMalone 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogervang Posted March 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 For anyone that hasnt gone through the bait swap thread yet, go check it out. Theres a whole bunch of us home builder building our own baits and swapping between one another. Heres a little update that I had going. I got the new design molded and painted up just one glide for the swap. It only took 4 tries for me to finally tell myself to stop washing off the paint. hopfually there'll be more to come in the near future. greentrout, Drewm42, Wykyd B8 and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My OG's are too close to my heart to actually sell but willing to loan if you want to fish and check the swim out...it's all good Hallar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
