Title: Epoxy in crank-bait eyelets
Post by: Blackstone on 11/06/18 19:04 UTC

I've been having trouble with epoxy gumming up my eyelets, when sealing my crank-baits.  I was wondering how to avoid this problem.

I’ve seen videos of people putting a piece of wire / paper clip for the epoxy to escape  to but don’t no if you hang yours or use a drying wheel.

I use a drying wheel, but I might have to hang them first, for a bit after watching those videos.

 I use a coned Dremel bit to clean mine out the next day.
