One of my projects I've been working off-and-on is a custom inline spinner, and using tungsten flippin' weights instead of the usual brass beads. Denser, better casting range, etc. Originally I was wanting something heavy enough to throw with my surf rod back in OK, but now that I'm up here in MI, they have a weight limit on lures used "in streams" of 1 oz. So, I'm thinking 3/4 oz weights, with the other stuff, should do.
I've found a source for the weights online. I was thinking I would order some unpainted, and powder paint them to my desire.
Now comes the fun part. How the heck am I going to heat them, and them dip them into the powder? Piece of wire through the hole, hold it over my lamp, then dip/roll in the powder? How about final curing? Make a plank with some dowel rods, and shove the sinker down onto the dowel?
