Painting crankbaits........

[Tracker123]

I ordered the stuff to make/paint crank baits after much research. I think it will be fun as an additional hobby. What sort of rig-up is used to paint the crank baits? I'm thinking of something with wire and an aligator clip(s). I don't have any idea at this point. Thanks for your help.

I just built me a rack with threaded rods through it to hang my baits after painting, I just used paper clips that I bent to hang them by. Once I put the clearcoat on them I have a lure turner I made out of a rotisserie motor I got and put some round wheels (wooden) on there with dowel pins sticking out and a alligator clip on the end. Here is a picture of my drying rack (home made)
