Hi, guys. If you like this video or something you don't like in the video. Please leave a comment down below. I really need your feedback to improve my future videos, thank you.
Alex, this was a great step by step video. I have just started my 3D printing with the intent of designing and making my own lures. This video, so far, was the best one displaying what is needed to make a lure, how to do the weights, rattles, and hooks. Well done.
Thank you very much. Because somebody said it's little bit to long..so I was little bit worried about it. I want to show the people don't have the knowledge of lure making, they actually can make it, too.
@@3DPrintedAngler No I think you did a fine job of speeding things up when they needed to be and slowing down to explain yourself. You may try to use bookmarks to allow people to quickly move through the steps. But I watched the whole video without skipping around! Also, I came here from one of the fishing subreddits. It is escaping me which one exactly, but that is were I found your videos. You might try posting to r/functionalprint to gain some subs.
@@BrandonLarge Thank you so much!! Glad you like my video. I know I have to imporve my English in the video. I am not a native English speaker and I feel nervous when I talking to the camera. Sometimes I don't even know what I was talking about, I think maybe because I just started making videos, hope I will get better soon. Actually I only had a few watch before I posted my videos on reddit. I was so worried about people don't like my videos, my content or me. I just find out people actually like my videos and content that really encouraged me. I think before I try to gain more subs I have to make more content first people may not subscribe based on my current number of videos. I will try r/functionalprint I didn't know it before you told me. Thank you so much for your feedback you encouraged me so much!!!!
Good job Alex, very instructive and informative video! been thinking about to make my own lure! 3d printing seems a very legit choice for me. Keep the good work!
I enjoyed the video ,thank you.I printed three,I am going to paint them and give them a test. Any chance of you showing us step by step how it was designed in the 3d program.
Hi, thank you very much. Glad you like it. About step by step design using 3d software. There are many videos available on RUclips you can watch. Just search on RUclips you can find many of them.
Thank you. Yes, the shape of the lure looks like some big companies' products. Well, but you know that no matter what company or whatever handmade lures they all got similar shape. No matter what type of lures you always can find similar products from other company, isn't it? Lol, in fact I did learn from Tsunami's lure, but as you can tell it is totally different stuff from any other big companies', isn't it? Thank you!
I’m not sure what you use bro! But I know 304 SS wire have 2 type. The Soft and Hard one. Maybe, the thin wire ? So you look to much easy to bending that wire 😂😂😂😂 Coz, I use between 2.0mm or 1.5mm to my popper 🤣
If you are sure the ball size is 7/16. Then make sure you didn't scale down the 3D model size. If the ball size is 7/16 and you printed out the lure with it's original size. the ball should fit the hole.😀
hey! nice project :) i'm going to make it but i want to use fishing weights instead of steel balls. Can you tell me please how much each of the 7/16 balls weights?
Is this cost effective? How much did the 3D printed lure come out to? (With filament, split rings, hooks, ss wire, 2 part expoxy, glitter, ect factored in) Besides being able to customize a lure base on preference I'm wondering if it's just cheaper to buy a manufactured top water lure. Good video looking forward to watching more.
If you don't count the time you spend on it, yes it is cost effective because the materials are not expensive. I did some calculation that the total cost of each lure is less than $3, two high quality hooks cost arond $1 and others will cost around less than $2. Yes, you have to spend time on them but lure making process can bring you fun and joy, and catching fish on the lure you made yourself really brings you accomplishment and triples the fun of fishing. Not sure about you but to me making my onw lure and catching fish on it really makes me feel I proud of myself. Hope you like my answer. ^_^
Thank you for doing the calculations I really appreciate it. I am very interested in trying this out myself. I agree making your own lure and catching fish with it can be exciting and extremely rewarding. Another question if you don't mind, is how heavy is the top water lure (grams/ounces)? Does it sink or float? Sorry for all the questions. Really interested, Thank you
@@RSDream77 The lure I made in the video is about 7'' long and weights 2.8oz, it is a topwater popper so of course it floats. I have a smaller and lighter version of this lure around 5'' long maybe I will make a video about it in the future.
Great thank you for the quick replies. I have some poppers that are slow sinking and when retrieved it will rush to the surface. Some fisherman will actually fill floating poppers with BBs or oil to make them sink for different lure actions. There are many types of topwater lures all for different purposes. Would be great to see the 5" smaller and lighter version video in future. Maybe videos showing the action of the 3D lures? Looking forward to more content, keep it up!
@@RSDream77 My first fishing video have some footage of my lure action...that's my first video everymade..little boring you can take a look just go my channel page and video list you will find it....and I thought people add BBs and oil to popper because some poppers are very very super super light like Cotton Cordell Pencil Popper... can't cast far...so people add some weights inside to make it cast far...
@@AlmostAny1 Well, I don't really know. Basically I just making lure for fun. If I want to sell my lures I would do it long time ago. I thought about selling my lures on website like Esty or Ebay few years ago. Just not sure if it worth the time doing it. How much will you sell my lure for?
@@AlmostAny1 Well, I can find a time and bring my lures to you. You can take a look of them then decide if you want to sell them. I will not force myself to make more of them I only make them for fun so my supply will be very low maybe only a few of them a week or a month you still want to do it?

Thank you!

great vid. try make your wire go all the way through to give you strength if you hook the fish of a life time
What you do with the hook eyes is brilliant. Great build! Hope to see more.....
Thank you! You will.^_^
If you want to you can put Mica powder in the epoxy to make it have more colors 👍 good work 😎
Thank you.😁
Alex I have been looking for this moment I heard of bluefish
Sorry, I am not sure what you are taking about?

Thank you I will.
Your lure looks like "Tsunami Talkin Popper" in the general setting, isnt it? Great design. Thank you!

@@3DPrintedAngler Do you mind sharing 4, 5 and 6 inches sizes as STL? They may not be direct resize because of eyes and bearings sizes. Best regards.
I do have a 6 inch version, maybe I in the future video I will share it.
That great going to try to make one
Thank you.
@@3DPrintedAngler hopefully ill see you in the inlet this summer.
You probably will.😁
This great bro ! But, I think you must to changing the wire with strongest hard wire stainless steel 304 or 316. It will be perfect
The wire you saw in the video is 304 stainless steel wire.😜🤪😝😁
I’m not sure what you use bro! But I know 304 SS wire have 2 type. The Soft and Hard one.
Maybe, the thin wire ? So you look to much easy to bending that wire 😂😂😂😂
Coz, I use between 2.0mm or 1.5mm to my popper 🤣
@Fiega Erfansyah that's 18 gauge wire which means around 1.2mm it's strong enough.🤪🤪😜😜😝😝😁😁
You need super glue accelerator. It would make it easier.
Thanks for the tip!
can you make small minnows like 50 - 60 mm
It's really good . Can you help me to get hold of a small 3d printer , I would like to make my own popers..
Hi, I don't really understand what you mean..You mean you want to buy one or you want to know more about 3d printer??
I printed this, ordered exactly everything you did, Steel ball was too large to fit.
If you are sure the ball size is 7/16. Then make sure you didn't scale down the 3D model size.
If the ball size is 7/16 and you printed out the lure with it's original size. the ball should fit the hole.😀
why does not the hook eye pull out ?
a 30lb blue fish or 40 lb stiper i want to catc,dont look dtrong enuf,tnx.
Why did you use PLA filament? Do you think I could print this with PETG?
Yes, you can use PETG. I use PLA because it is easy to print and it's strong enough.
hey! nice project :) i'm going to make it but i want to use fishing weights instead of steel balls. Can you tell me please how much each of the 7/16 balls weights?
Thank you, it weights about 5.5g each.

Hi Alex mi name is Alex. Are u willing to teach me how tu use the printer .. I'm very new in 2 this
Well, you can watch my videos to learn it.
Thankas i will
🤙😎
🤗
The 3D jerkbaits, do the lip break easily or is it strong?
Strong
What is the final weight of that popper
It's about 80g or 2.8oz.
How durable are these?
Very strong
Hey Alex, I own a bait shop in Queens would love to talk to you about selling some of your lure designs
Hi, what do you mean sell my lure designs??? You mean my lure? or the 3d model I made?
@@3DPrintedAngler Talking about the physical lures. If you were interested.
@@AlmostAny1 Well, I don't really know. Basically I just making lure for fun. If I want to sell my lures I would do it long time ago. I thought about selling my lures on website like Esty or Ebay few years ago. Just not sure if it worth the time doing it. How much will you sell my lure for?
@@3DPrintedAngler I think you can get $20 a piece because they are made locally, similar pricing to superstrike.
@@AlmostAny1 Well, I can find a time and bring my lures to you. You can take a look of them then decide if you want to sell them. I will not force myself to make more of them I only make them for fun so my supply will be very low maybe only a few of them a week or a month you still want to do it?
