Fluid Beds

[skiptomylu]

TJ's tackle for the fluid bed not home made kind is what I uses and where I buy the cups. I don't know Crazy Angler's prices on paint, but you should check with him as I feel his prices are really good for most things I have looked at. I just have not bought any paint from him since I buy from the Mfg. which means you have to buy a pound of each color.

i bought a fluid bed a couple of years ago. I do not even use it anymore. I guess if you paint a lot maybe they help out. I just dip mine in the powder and keep it stiired up. Most of the fishermen around here do it the same way. Now if you are selling jigs maybe thats the way to go. just my opinion which I am told is not worth much.

You know some times I forget that. I use the dip in the jar it comes in for a good while when I started and even doing a good many.

I think you are right on oldwun and people not tying a giant number of jig heads should just probably keep if fluffed and dip right in the container it comes in. Now the only time that may be trouble if you get paint the is not Pro-Tec and then some of it will come in really tall for their size bottles and hard to dip in them after they get say 1/4 way from the top.

Hey cadman that replied to this thread has some paint by the pound. Don't know what colors you want, but also sent you a PM for others. If cadman has it then his price would be very hard to beat.
