Bigger Glider wanted
« on: May 31, 2012, 05:46:07 PM »
Hey there, super stoked on the current top water gliders you have for sale as kits. They swim as well as any made, imo.

O would like to see a larger one though, as much as 2 inches longer (like 6 -6 1/2 inches) ?

best.

Glad you like them John. I'm up to my arms in stuff right now but will consider doing something in the future.

Sorry for that above...

About 3oz or so, no more than 4, not much less than 3oz.

best regards.

no worries John. I'll take a look at a scaled up version on the cad/cam and see if I can make something work in that range.

I will need you to test them :)

I played with this for a bit this week. Not happy with the scaling. It makes the lure much too fat when I scale it up even proportionally. Just don't like the shape. It doesn't turn me on.
