Paul as of now I assemble , coat ,heat with gun to get epoxy flowing ,flip 3 or so times. Can this still be possible due to the longer set time or is a spinner with heater needed?

Painting my "silent George" remakes. Simple colors fluorescent green w/white & chartreuse bellys , dark greenw/silver belly. Try to find is my yellow mackerel pencils and blue cloud. Weather being so nice, trying to push the next few weeks in finishing up. Time to fish!

I would make a spinner with a little heat just makes it easier in our climate but Mike Fixter uses clear coat and flips his plugs, he is in Northern Cal., so it is possible.

I'm finally getting around to turning a few.
Just needles for now, maybe some pencils if I can get to them. I've been fishing a lot more needles the past few years.

I still like really the turning part of it but kind of dread the rest of the process. I just hope i can get some of these done by the time the fish are here...

I have a box myself, I need to finish up.

60 % of the time, it works every time.
