Plug spinner/dryer

Finally got around to completing my spinner....gonna test it out tonight with some plugs. Fully loaded it will handle 8 plugs which I figured I can always change out the discs to do more if that need ever arrives. Anyway, used a universal rotisserie from Home Depot, the wheels I got from Michael's Craft Store, and I used just simple hooks and springs to hold the lures. Decided not to put it in a box, that way I can switch out the wheels later on if need be. I'm sure it will take a little longer to cure, but there's no rush if I do it over night or on a long day off.

Nice and simple . Good job. Are you coating first then putting on spinner? If so isn't the pretty tricking not dropping plugs? I 've been flipping and still manage to customize a few plugs when they drop on the floor. OUCH!!!

good job

you are into it now for sure

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

nice.. you still might rethink putting it in a box.... just to keep unwanted smegma from landing on them...that includes bugs and dust bunnies...almost time to use the fruits of you labor...

A good run is better than a bad stand!

Linesider, that's a universal rotisserie kit I got from Home Depot for like 29 bucks. Works pretty good. I'm thinking about changing out the wheels to heavier wooden ones now that I dried about 16 lures. They seem to warp a little and aren't a real wood like I thought, but some sort of pressed plaster board or something. But they did the trick for the maiden voyage
