    How exactly do you powder paint a threaded body? Wouldn't the thread and tail material burn when heated?

    Default Well let's see

    Did I leave out some information ? :D no the thread does not burn nor does the material on the tail.
    But I did leave out this "little" detail.
    You do not cure the powder paint in the oven. Because of the thickness of the paint you would have a mess. We put clean vinyl coat over the body.
    I heat my gun to 450 to apply powder paint. Will post more pictures of these jigs in the future.
    Give it a whrill, you will enjoy making these jigs:rolleyes:

    Default Jigging Joe,

    They are indestructible! They would last you forever (unless you catch a big tree!)
    What colors would you like to see? PM me your address and I will send you some samples and you can see how indestructible they really are.
    What size would you like?
    look forward to hearing from you again.
    Bob

    Thanks for all the good complements. Yes they are very time-consuming to make these jigs but I enjoy every minute of it .
