Hey guys,

I got a step-by-step project of 2 bass lures, from start to finish, on the group For Those Who Just Love to Fish. I made them for a friend there and he was interested in seeing the progress.

If you're interested in wasting a couple minutes, take a look. You're here anyway lol.

Well, I live about 30 feet from the woods in a trailer park where, needless to say, there is lots of otherwise expensive types of wood. I selectively cut a couple that were brought down by ice the other week, a couple inches at the butts. Now comes the long part: waiting for it to season. Something to look forward to. I'm trying to do it as cheaply as I can without compromising quality.

Hey Al, That is cool that you work with as much raw material as possible. I order in supplies, it is easier for me. I am working hard to put my "Lab" back together.It's a little more intailed because I running new electrical wire, phone wire, heat lines and water lines.

Thanks man. These are what I'd consider my second generation lures, being stepped up to power tools and plastic lips. We upgraded the sides of one of the buildings at work a couple years ago and there's still some pieces of it kicking around.

The lathe is a blast! I was never much into power tools but I'm good with fine detailed work and the lathe allows me to do that.

I was just checking in here while getting ready to take my dog in the woods. I'm going to go for a bit of birch or maple or something to play with. I like to work with my own raw materials whenever possible. So ta ta for now,

Al.

I have a few prototype lures done on the lathe here. I just need to find some hardware to suit my needs, like proper sized eye screws.

And a happy new year's back to you.

Got a couple nice power tools now for lure making - a 12" lathe and a Dremel tool knock-off. Anyone else get anything for tackle making for Christmas?
