    Default New addiction


    I am a powder painting fool now!!!!! Thanks crazy angler thanks alot.... 22 colors, and away I went. I got everything ready, turned on my heat gun and started heating found out that 4seconds was perfect for a 1/8oz head. Dipped in fluid bed and it started to shine. Boy a ball bat couldnt knock the smile off my face. I then hung it up on my drying rack and kept going. 40 min later I had 400 heads prepainted.. Then came time to cure them so I put in 100 1/8oz 356 for 25min. Then 200 1/16, and last 100 1/24 oz..My nose was stuck on the oven watching for drips and to my amazement....NONE...... I am a pro or atleast I like to think so now lol...

    Thanks skeetbum, skiptomylou, and Revtoby. For all the help guys and tricks and tips!!!!!Thumbs Up

    Yep it's addicting. All of it is. From pouring the lead to painting them to tying them up. I get hooked on it easily so I have to pace myself doing all of it. It's just a huge satisfaction to me to take some random stuff like hooks, lead and feathers and turn it into something not only beautiful but functional and useful to boot. It's hard to explain the buzz you get from it to someone who doesn't understand. It's even harder to explain the buzz you get when you feel the thump on one of your creations.
