Thanks. They don't look that good in the pictures but they turned out pretty nice.  Took me like an hour to do twenty because I kept having to roll them.  I've got one of those orange juicer things that turns when you push the orange on it.  I was thinking about using it but my friend that owns a body shop said he would start painting everything for me.  He has every paint imaginable so will see how that works out.

Tip for Etex (i used to use it a lot for my wooden lures but then swutched to system III, get a rod drying motor and build yourself a cheap spinner with a big foam circle, hook the jig hooks in the foam (similar to a fly dryer), plug in and let the motor spin em for ya.  :smt002

Thanks for the tip.  I'll try it when I do it again.  I might just paint all my heads at my friends bodyshop from now on but the etex would protect it pretty good.  Andy

I can't wait to get them in the mail Andy. You've just increased my chance of
catching more fish at GS4. Thanks for all your hard work on making them. Very
good work of art my friend.

Yeah, Etex will protect them well as it flexes.  I am planning on making some rockcod irons out f an old Jax Jig I have, last one of the small size I have seen in years.  I am planning on using the epoxy top coat on those as well.  :smt002
