and lots of plastic to do a lot of experimenting but you are right you can mix up thousands of different colors by experimenting. We just assume have them already mixed it saves a lot of aches and pains in keeping track of your mixtures. Are you pouring plastics?.

Between here and Tackle underground I get in trouble LOL. They have a cookbook over at the site, and you can even ask if someone has figured them out yet. Great guys to deal with.

Of all my fishing sites I think I recommend Crappie.com and Tackleunderground the most. Both have excellent craftsman and they'res always room to share both ways.

okay you got my curiosity up I'll go take a look I was into airbrushing. But I do not have my equipment I would love to do work on plastics with the airbrush at one time I had to stop to do that I would have to research that type of plastic paint that I used if I find it again I will definitely let you guys know. You can be real creative and make the plastic baits the fantastic. It's something like photo imagery on plastic nowadays. But that is very expensive and I suppose you could do that with the computer would be the only way to do that. I haven't thought about tying my computer into making plastic baits but there is a possibility. There has been very little on how to work with your plastic baits and injection molding very little has been told about how to blend colors and how to core shoot a center line down the middle of your baits. For the most part it is pilot error on my part right now we are just a beginner and I have a lot to learn it's been too blasted hot here to do any of that. We are going for four days and a little vacation hopefully when I get back on Monday we will start messing with the plastics again. Hopefully with the guys on here with helpful information maybe we can learn to gather the tricks of the trade. It's like starting all over again was something new for me is I have master hand tying jigs many years ago. I do not display too much maybe one of these days I will display more jigs of the father. Well I got carried away here so I better quit.

where does Bobby Garland get his colors from or does he makes up his own concoctions. I use that word a little but loosely but they mainly will make up some thing that you cannot purchase. We may come close to whatever they have but not exactly. We haven't tried mixing anything yet I don't know if I want to. Too many colors that we will be getting to start mixing anything else up.be gone a few days my friend be back Monday.

I guess BG makes up their own colors. I do not know. I do some mixing of used plastic, the only bad thing is, once I do it, I cannot duplicate the color

sometimes we can mix up a color but each time I go back it is different because I do not keep accurate measurements I called these witches brew.
