Mồi câu Zander (Walleye) Swimbait 2 mảnh

Required for assembly:

• 5 mm steel balls, you can use lead split shot but I haven't tried it
• 0.8 mm (0.031 inches) Stainless Steel wire. If you have thicker wire let me know I can make more versions with bigger holes.
• 5 mm eyes
• Super Glue
• Clear coat, I use UV resin, you can also get a spray can of varnish and give it a couple of coats. Without a clear coat, water will eventually leak inside and ruin the action.

Printing instructions:

If you use Orca Slicer, download the 3mf file, change the printer and filament to what you have and you should be fine.

Print orientation: 120 degrees on the X-Axis

Layer height: 0.2 mm
Wall Generator: Arachne

Wall printing order: Inner/Outer/Inner
Wall loops: 3
Infill: 20% (If you are using lead for weight or a fillament heavier than PLA consider reducing the infill)
Infill pattern: Gyroid
Minimum infill threshold: 0
Outer wall speed: 60 mm/s

Support: Tree(manual), On Build Plate only

Using support painting, set the highlight angle to 60-70 degrees, enable “on overhangs only”, and use the paint bucket tool to fill the highlighted area on the belly

You need to add a couple of pauses to embed the weight into the lure. If you used the same print orientation and layer height as mentioned above then the pauses will be:
 

Front piece pause 1: Layer 73 at 14.6 mm. Insert 2 balls
Front piece pause 2: Layer 212 at 42.4 mm. Insert 4 balls

Back piece pause: Layer 205 at 41 mm. Insert 2 balls

Assembly:

Using the stainless steel wire, create 5 twist wires that are 15 mm long, these will be the line tine, two hook hangers, and two extra that are required in the next step

There are many videos on YouTube showing the process of making twist wires, if you want me to make a video let me know, or join my discord server and get support from the community.

Create two additional twist wires but this time before you twist them, insert another twist wire inside the loop. This will form the connection points between the two sections.

Cut the wire to length (15 mm).

Using super glue, glue in the line tie and the two hook hangers.

Optional: Paint the lure with your favorite lure pattern.

Glue in the eyes.

Give it a couple of clear coats.

Glue in the double twist wires to the front piece and make sure the eyelets of the twist wires are vertical. Once the glue sets, glue in the other end of the twist wires into the back piece, this time making sure the eyelets are horizontal.

Put on some hooks and enjoy your brand new lure.
