    Default Second go at eyes


    I have learned a lot from you guys. Thanks, sure makes the evening pass when the weather is too nasty to fish. Here are some heads I poured and attempted stick in eyes. Which ones you like. I like the yellow ones as they stand out better. I just did 10 of each color. I think on next ones I put on I will use a small dab of super glue. I coated them with clear vinyl but fear they may come off. Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1420675225.560508.jpg

    Default Second go at eyes

    I flattened the head like fatmans video and then applied eyes. I didn't glue the eyes on this batch but I think I will on my next batch. I just stuck them to the head and then applied vinyl clear coat over. I think I am gonna put two coats clear to make sure they don't fall off lol.

    Jackie the whole time I put them on I was thinking loctite lol

    Nice work with the eyes I pick eye color to match the finished jig color, or what I think looks best.
