    #6. Build one then check it in water. If its not the proper spacing (clevis &blade to body) the blade will just pull in tight and do nothing. Once you know how many beads it takes then let it rip

    When I make 1/4oz in-lines I use the #4. Now I've never used the bell body that a blue fox uses but I have used a lot of lead and brass bodies. Spacing isn't an issue, blade and clevis size is but on a 1/4oz bait you are probably going to use a #3 French blade so you shouldn't have any issues. If you have any problems let me know and I should be able to help, I've done a lot of in-lines from 1/16oz to 1/2oz using a lot of different blade types.

    Thanks Smalljaw.... Appreciate it. I ordered #4 and # 6 trebles. I have some of both but I wanted a few feathered trebles too of each size. YES, #3 french blades. Making 10 1/4 and 10 3/8th.

    Where are you getting all of the parts to make them? I have a friend who loves these spinners but hates the $5 price tag.

    I’ve searched the links above, but can’t find where to buy the bell and the piece that goes inside the bell? Any help on that?
