[QUOTE="richg99, post: 253082, member: 4376"] re Shape....Oh, what you've done is excellent. It is simply more complicated than one that is symmetrical. I am impressed! I just thought it would be easiest to make a simple pencil shape, tapered on each end for one's first attempt at shaping a lure. You are, obviously, a very good carver. If I were going to do make a symmetrical body.....I'd use the "put a headless wood-screw in your drill"; "chuck the pointy end of the screw into a piece of wood/cork/etc. " and "spin the wood against a sanding drum/belt/board" process that I described in a message above. Below is a quick example, using a wine bottle cork. I cranked it out in a few minutes after seeing this post.
