Beetle spin DIY?

[snake River]

I use a Worth hand wire forming tool. It has the nubs on the front to hand bend wire BUT!! it doesn't like wire above .031. You can make all the bends you need with the Worth tool then use needle nose to make the closing bends. For heavier wires I use an old screw driver wooden hand and use nails to make the nubs. Attachment 509386 For walleyes and bass or bigger I'd use at least the .031

Is the thing in the picture a homemade wire bending tool.

Yes! This is the second one that I haven't cut the long shaft on yet

I save/use the wire handles from China carryout containers.
