FLUID BEDS 2.0!!!

[@MSSfan]

I've recently found you channel. Very helpful and your explanations are excellent. Thanks for the Fluid Beds 2.0

[@danielgordon6746]

Great information. TJs has always been top notch.

[@B8N_Tackle]

Thanks man!

[@GTC1967]

I bet coffee filters work really really good. Being able to adjust airflow by adding filters has got to be a real advantage.

[@13thworker45]

You really share info. I’ll have to order from T j s and change mine. I built a 12 color fluid bed with a double cooling rack. It’s a lot of fun to create. Thank You

[@B8N_Tackle]

Your welcome buddy! That's what I'm here for! Love showing people what's out there!

[@TimeOnTheWaterProduction]

Stoked on it man! such a great color

[@harviecz]

There are so many DIY uses for this great technique. But somehow only fishermen seem to use it... This needs to change :-)

[@TimeOnTheWaterProduction]

if i ever move to powder coating ill have to make myself some. awesome work

[@B8N_Tackle]

Thanks man!

[@robertchadwick2925]

I'm sure glad to hear about those filters. I'm getting ready to build some fluid beds and just ordered filters from TJ's Tackle. Thanks for sharing this.

[@B8N_Tackle]

Absolutely! Thanks for watching!

[@NP-ql4qo]

How did you contact them to order those? I've emailed them a couple times from their website but have not heard back.

[@NP-ql4qo]

Update: Like the homepage says if you have not heard back check your "spam" box. Sure enough it was there. They still sell them.

[@robertchadwick2925]

@@NP-ql4qo I sent an email to the email address listed in the Contact us part of their web site. I never found a phone number.

Nice venting system.

[@B8N_Tackle]

Thanks man!

[@jimboslice7389]

Plan pouring jig next year. This has helped in the right path to get color on them. Will hit up TJs soon.

[@B8N_Tackle]

Awesome man! Glad it helped!

[@nightguy4163]

the super glue you threw away @ 5:50 in the video take that pop that blue clip out of the bottom and you will see two tubes if glue in there. There is till a lot of glue in those tunes that your throwing away! just trying to help a brother save a little! keep up the great work and the great videos!

[@B8N_Tackle]

Yup, I appreciate it brotha, I do that now all the time, lol. This was filmed awhile back when I didn't know any better, lol.

[@djradrs199]

Interesting filter material .... I'm small time'n for my personal use .. but i may check out that filter thingy

[@B8N_Tackle]

You won't regret it Dan!

@@B8N_Tackle I copied Adams 4 Cup with Manifold earlier this yr ...mounted everything , including the pump on a board that I can move it around ( keeps everything together ) just bought some more pvc parts to add a few more cups /colors I'll try those on the new cups i make 👌

[@Hawaiibohntr]

2P-10 from Woodcraft is perfect 4000 psi sheer strength and sets in 15-20 seconds.
Comes in thin, medium, and thick formula, also a spray to instantly sets the 2P-10.

[@B8N_Tackle]

Is that a type of super glue? There is a woodcraft here and I want to check that out

[@Mav8887.]

Should you make two holes in the pvc if you have a dual hose pump or use a T connector and 1 hole?

[@B8N_Tackle]

@@Mav8887. t connector

[@cncmoldsnstuff4423]

I wonder if those filters are sliced off PVC foam board. The stuff the "plastic" trim boards are made from you can find at the big box stores.

[@B8N_Tackle]

I'm not sure Bob, possibly, I may have to look into that!

[@Paul-ke5lu]

Sorry about the comment being in the wrong video but I lost the one that I have the question for. Did you show a bottom part of you fluid bed that you bought from TJ's tackle that was perforated? I don"t see it on there website. Thanks much!!

[@B8N_Tackle]

Just a disc cut to size for size pvc. You have to contact tjs tackle to get those.

[@isaiahstanley1148]

When you bake your jigs how long and what temp do you do.? Also does it matter how you bake them.? What do you use .?

[@B8N_Tackle]

Hey man, I use a toaster oven, 350 degrees for 20 minutes. That is what protec powder paints recommend, could be different depending on paint. Also you can use your home oven to bake them too.

[@isaiahstanley1148]

@@B8N_Tackle thanks bro appreciate it! Where do you get your lead from.?

[@B8N_Tackle]

@isaiahstanley1148 all sorts of places, I tore up an old bathroom at the house and the shower pan liner was soft lead! 60 lbs worth. But if you buy it, cheap sinkers on sale, tire weights, or buy ingots from eBay.

[@isaiahstanley1148]

@@B8N_Tackle thanks bro really appreciate it!

[@papat3877]

That pretty cool but will they clog with paint or hold onto the paint so you can not change paint color in the cup?

[@B8N_Tackle]

Hey bud, I tried emptying one of those cups, very minimal paint in the disc and you could easily switch colors. One side of the disc is smooth, that is the side I put toward the paint. The other side is porous and definetely would hold paint.

[@user-vf2ex8lm2p]

I know its an older video. But what r the white tubes ur using in the weed guard hole. Thank u

[@B8N_Tackle]

Those are Teflon hole pins bud, get them at Barlow's use B8NTACKLE at checkout, helps support the channel.

[@bobbymoules6008]

How is the air coming through the bottom cap that sealed with glue?

[@B8N_Tackle]

Are you talking about the base that the cup goes into or the filter material?

[@woodmasterran9528]

Sweet! I have been using paper pages and printer paper. How thick are the plastic filters?

[@B8N_Tackle]

Probably like 1/8" thick, they sell both 2" and 3" FYI

[@michael_mc_gowan]

They dont seem to show on the site, the filters. Are the cups they sell coming with them attached, or do we need to special order the filters?

[@B8N_Tackle]

I believe the cups come with them, to order only the filter media you need to email them.

[@michael_mc_gowan]

@B8N Tackle Thanks for the quick reply. I'm just starting to look into making my own baits, so I'm looking at the cost of buying or building my own. Appreciate you and the channel content.

[@Philjmattson]

Does the plastic filter keep the paint in the pvc tube if I choose to make separate tubes for each color? Or do I need to cover the filter end of the tube when I am storing the tube?

[@B8N_Tackle]

No need to cover end and yes it holds it better than paper filters.

[@rider660r]

Why in the world wouldn't you have to cover the filter you cover the top don't you? There is no on and off switch to let/keep air from passing through it and bringing humidity along for the ride....
Yes you better cover it or else sooner or later you're going to have bad paint.
I've found the best filter material,cost around $7 for a whole 27x30" +/- sheet that you will not poke holes through. I've made like 20 or so for 3" fluidbeds and can probably get a dozen yet for 2".

[@danielfields641]

​@@rider660rwhat material homie

[@B8N_Tackle]

I've had them for years with the cup out if the fluid bed abd not covering the filter side, also being stored sitting on the filter and in a controlled environment in a dry box.

[@B8N_Tackle]

Tjs Tackle, filter media, it's like a plastic with fine air ventilation.

[@rider660r]

I've looked around their site a few different times for other things,but have always found it cheaper elsewhere. Their site isn't all that great either. Then on top of that you have to email them to order those,probably ridiculously priced too.
I've found a material about 3 yrs ago that probably works as well or maybe better than those and it's only around $7 a sheet that's +/- 27x30". You won't poke holes in it either unless you sharpen something and poke it though and even then you're going to have to add some force to do that.
It's also hard to really take word from folks who are still buying and using overpriced Protec and those other "special" fishing powder paints. There's only a few actual Power Paint manufacturers in the US and a few others in the world. You don't think these places like Protec,etc. buy from them and rebrand it and then jack the price to sell to you......? I get all my paints from 2 of these Mfg. and the 10-11 basic colors are only around $8-14 for a whole pound of paint. The other 6500+ colors you can get or make is anywhere from $10 to maybe $60 now per pound even for the vein,wrinkle,illusion,wet,transparent,changing,etc. over the basic gloss,satin,or flats and usually once a month they have specials from free colors to swatches... Don't see that many colors or specials from Protec and those other frauds. The other colors don't really matter though. Those other colors are really intended catch your green more than it is fish,fish are perfectly fine with the 10-11 basic colors and more often hit a plain old unpainted head.
I won't even mention the laugh I had while watching the glue up..... but I had a good time watching something that has a simple solution and then throwing it out the window.....lol

would you mind sharing the links for the paint and the diffuser sheets.
