I thought about the Copic system but couldn't justify the price since I already own an airbrush but to me airbrushing is a PITA.

FYI I have found out the hard way that 5 minute epoxy is not waterproof! The five minute stuff will crack on you while the UV stuff holds up. The UV is also much more expensive than epoxy but will not yellow over time.

I have heard the 30 minute epoxy is waterproof and much tougher (from Surfstix I believe).

Did you make your own drying wheel or buy one? Pictures or reviews???

Also, check out the "Bobs Bangers" style poppers. They are much easier and quicker to make...a big plus if your feeding them to the bluefish.

That's good to know about the 30 minute- 5 minutes really isn't enough working time when you are trying to do more than one lure. I will be buying the 30 minute once the 5 minute is done.
