    Thanks guys. Adam, I really dont have the time but in this economy, I make the time. I was completely worn out when I finished this job from working so much. Still have about 60 - 70 baits to paint. Going to be a long week again.

    Re: Mass Production (shaggy1081)

    My question is who has 127 baits that have to be custom painted?
    Good for your business but that is a little much for most people.

    Re: Mass Production (egandy)

    I did 200 of one style for a guy one time and I was sick of them when I got done. He had another 100 that he wanted me to do but I put him off for a long time before I finally did them. Repetition gets old after a while. Now to make matters worst I now have 100 huge musky lures to paint for one guy. Man I'll be busy for a while to go along with the 100's of others I now have to paint.

    I had around 30 hrs on this project. The guy said that he didnt have confidence in the colors they were so he wouldnt throw them. works for me.

    Re: Mass Production (egandy)

    Wow!

    I'd go crazy if I tried to do that many lures at once.
