A Mess O' Dannies
I cleared some dannies yesterday. I have to finish making the lips yet, but I figured I'd post them anyways.
Here's some little 5" 1 1/2oz ones that started life out destined to be poppers, but the shape looked too swimmeryish to me.

And finally, here's the whole family. I hope they all swim as well as their prototypes did, then I won't care as much that my airbrush is mad at me again.

That is the most perfect, basic color selection of danny's I have seen in a long time. As far as I have always been concerned you have everything you need as far as the colors that actually work time and time again. Good job there. |
Why even try.........

Steelhead, I use .030" type 304 and I rough cut it with a floorstanding sheetmetal shear, then use a beltsander(60 grit?) to come up to the lines on the template. After that I bend on the lines and punch the hole with a whitney hand punch(I use a slightly oversized round hole and just tighten the wire into the wood a bit, haven't had a problem with spinning wire yet). I then take off the paper and buff the whole thing. Clean off the compound and I'm done. Kinda makes life easier to buy them, but where's the challenge in that? Plus I have gotten a bunch of small scraps for free from work one time. I haven't had to buy any yet, but I'm getting close to needing to.
