Tips for the scroll saw: replace the bouncy insert with something rigid, increase the speed, and check out all the different blade choices there are. Scroll saws are cool because with the right blades, you can cut holes in things with no exit. Just take the blade off, run it through a pre-drilled hole, and re-attach the blade.
yeah, blade choice is key. Many blades available. You can cut details with a jigsaw that are sketchy on a bandsaw. I use it for cutting the plexiglass/polycarbonate, less scary for your fingers. I have been watching your channel since before you talked in em 😆. So, I remember the video where the old finger kissed the bandsaw blade!
@timpickens4497 it's okay. Maybe he will get writers block one day and think...hmmm 🤔 a baby Mahi Mahi would be cool. Why didn't I think of that before? ... and secretly I will know I put it in his head 🤣
So I’m watching these videos out of order and seeing you zoom in on Chips eye while the music lyrics were saying “im goin home” brought me to tears. Mans best friend buddy, RIP Chip
Your debate to cut down the bulbous tail from square to rounded gave me an idea to challenge your skills: Carve a bait that you could make a mold, carve and modify it to make another mold and then once more. Like 3 soft plastics from one chunk of wood.
Are you thinking that it'd be interesting to carve the master and then rather than retire it, craft interchangeable features to snap in and out of the body for variations in the molds? Ya know... like, to have the control vs variants for testing purposes? Because if you just put that idea in my head, i'd have to agree that it'd be a really interesting video. I love these videos, Nathan! 🤘 The two best teachers i've ever known are nature and failure, but after watching for years, i've learned a lot from you as well. I've taken notes on plenty of things from underwater physics and bouyancy to carving technique and wood working tools to soft plastics and plug in the lead pot to name a few.
@@dustinmiller2969 I was thinking of it like a Russian Nesting Doll of sorts. Start with a large carving and produce a mold before witling to something smaller and repeating the process. But I like your idea to build something modular! That'd be very fun to see. And yes, always plug in the lead pot! :D
Scroll saws have a learning curve. Learning blade speed and blade type for the type/grain wood you are using. I used a scroll to make my baits 20-30 years ago. Don't give up on the saw, but perhaps replace the cut ring with a metal one. Your baits rock Brother!!!!!
Ryan Hall is my go-to live weather channel. Severe weather is fascinating as long as it stays away from home. If I hadn't started making baits I may have gotten into storm chasing. This bait has a forehead that looks quite carpy.
I caught my first common carp a couple weeks ago on just a small curly tail worm and really light line and I couldn’t stop laughing about it for a while!😂 I love your videos so much! Thanks for re-inspiring me to go out fishing again and to try soft plastics! I wouldn’t have had that great experience without it!
I hear ya there man but a scroll saw is one of those tools that has to be a good one or you can hurt yourself pretty good. And that one was definitely not one of the good ones.
Eventhough my baitmaking have been at a stop for a year because I need a new airbrush compressor and I've got a pike fly setup last year I will never not stop watching your videos 😊
FYI, walleye have no length limit on inland waters, 15 inch minimum only applies to mississippi river pools and a few specific lakes. I still would have thrown him back because it's a bit small (which may be why you mentioned it), but just thought it was worth pointing out.
I have used a scroll saw to cut a couple hundred lures, but have had opportunity to used a band saw on only a couple. Hands down!, the band sand is the much quicker and easier tool to use. Scroll saws are great for thin material when you need to cut precise detail, but not so much with 3/4 and 1 inch stock. I feel your pain!
i own both a scrollsaw and bandsaw, the key with scrollsaws in to never use blanks where your fingers are cramped or bunched up to hold onto it.. the piece will just rock on the table due to not enough surface area.. As soon as you use larger blanks the rocking will reduce considerably to where its a minor inconvenience sometimes.. And also put the pressure plate/safety guard down on the piece until its dragging across it with some friction.. the beauty of the scrollsaw is being able to make intricate cuts without always having to back out the blade and cut in again.. you can do something like your baits in pretty much one constant movement.. Also yeah your plastic deck plate is garbage, copy it and make one out of something like a hardwood or birch ply..
The scroll saw is a motorised version of the hand held one you use for lips'n stuff. Make a rigid blade inlay for the table, and use mainly for thin materials. You can hammer nails with a sewing machine..
I was watching with my kids and as soon as I saw the scroll saw I said “you’re not going to like it” and in the next clip you said “what if I don’t like it” 😂😂😂
i know you make baits but what if one day you made a rod and a bait and tried to catch a fish on both? it would be pretty cool to see you make and paint a rod!
Super generous guy. but yeah, I prefer my bandsaw over a scrollsaw too. I wonder if the blade would have made a difference. I find companies don't send their products with good blades generally, even on my bandsaw. Cut like butter once I replaced the one that came with it.
Heck yeah I watch weather events even when they aren’t nearby. It’s exciting seeing storm chasers intercept tornados. I find weather just fascinating in general. Sounds like you watch Ryan Hall Y’all.
I have an idea you should try with your wood lures. if you use a crumpled piece of brown paper bag and rub it on the white basecoat like using sand paper it smooths out the paint for the next layers and it will give you a nicer clearcoat.
I watch the weather events frequently but i work for a tree service that occasionally goes to other parts of the country to aid in clearing power lines to restore power
The scroll saw can be handy, but for sure I’d prefer the band saw. I have found that if it’s grabbing and kicking the work up, I flip the blade over so it’s grabbing and pulling the work towards the table. No clue if that’s the right way to use it, but it seems to help. 😂
Some more tips for the scroll saw you should hold the wood with a firm grip against the table so it doesn’t flop around and you should buy some good quality blades and it may take a bit to break them in too.
I would suggest making you a metal plate to replace the plastic circle. I don't know much about those saws so I have no clue how they are suppose to act.
Nate: I feel for ya.' buddy! I own 4 band saws and a 30 year old Craftsman scroll saw. The scroll saw hasn't been used 3 times in 30 years, for the exact same reason you don't care for that one! It vibrates and chatters all over the place and I'm always afraid I'll lose a finger using it? I've seen some seriously delicate craft work done on them, but that's not me I guess? I don't make baits (or I haven't in years), but I still love watching YOU do it. You're a master. I've been a Subscriber your a few years now. Always look forward to seeing what you'll make next?? :~)))) God bless: Dave
I have a band saw and scroll saw. To be honest, both are great to have, but neither are perfect for every job. I like scroll saw for certain things, but thickness of material really determines how it goes

It may simply be the blade is upside down and is cutting on the up stroke. That would explain the workpiece wanting to lift.
I agree a rigid insert ideally with a slit the size of the blade
I have fish request for a bait... A baby Mahi Mahi...The paint job would be amazing!
Good luck with that man
He don’t do viewers request I’ve tried and tried and tried and he don’t do it
@timpickens4497 it's okay. Maybe he will get writers block one day and think...hmmm 🤔 a baby Mahi Mahi would be cool. Why didn't I think of that before? ... and secretly I will know I put it in his head 🤣
Soft plastic or hard bait
@@jacobsnipes8021 I think the hard bait paint scheme would be beautiful.
I'm still waiting for him to do something with the old growth redwood I sent him
(You can see he showed it in his bougie bait video)
So I’m watching these videos out of order and seeing you zoom in on Chips eye while the music lyrics were saying “im goin home” brought me to tears. Mans best friend buddy, RIP Chip

Did I miss something? What happened to chip🥲
@Maleek808 past away one vid after this one

I'd have been here sooner but I was watching mythbusters. Thanks for filming stuff for us, much appreciated.
Banijay science took you too?

The shear content of this channel is literally my favorite thing to watch on any platform ever. . . It’s good stuff. On to the next bait!
You are the guy that keeps me making bucktail lures,everything is an option
Have you ever made a Rattle snake "rattle" crank bait? You are a positive influence to the world of bait makers,! Fish on! dude!!
You should make a tiger fish lure, that would be some spiffy fun facts and a cool lure
Bro you're a master on the bandsaw. Dont lose your edge
.....or your finger
I caught my first common carp a couple weeks ago on just a small curly tail worm and really light line and I couldn’t stop laughing about it for a while!😂 I love your videos so much!

9:17 Chip just casually gulping water in the background😂
I feel for the guy who sent you that scrollsaw. Brilliant video as ever
I hear ya there man but a scroll saw is one of those tools that has to be a good one or you can hurt yourself pretty good. And that one was definitely not one of the good ones.
@Schmidy76 oh absolutely, I've cut myself on one before it's not fun
Thanks for making such quality content. You’ve inspired me to start making lures.
That buffalo looked like a ton of fun to catch. Massive and had great fight in him for a good while.
Love your vids and sense of humour dude.... Commenting this before this vid just cauee i know you put out bangers😆💪
Eventhough my baitmaking have been at a stop for a year because I need a new airbrush compressor and I've got a pike fly setup last year I will never not stop watching your videos 😊
I don't think you even realize it,best lure maker,and given us good stuff always
That buffalo was amazing. Nice catch! Also even though your bait didn't work to catch fish, it looked great. 😂
FYI, walleye have no length limit on inland waters, 15 inch minimum only applies to mississippi river pools and a few specific lakes. I still would have thrown him back because it's a bit small (which may be why you mentioned it), but just thought it was worth pointing out.
It's official. These videos are awesome 🤘
I'm hooked on the channel. It's only a matter of time that I get that master class...
Thats one sexy shad dude. Hve literally been on the edge of my seat waiting for your next vid!🤣😂
I would love to see you make a koi fish lure.
The most graceful release for a pb buffalo ive ever seen.

Preciate you owning it. Not every bait can be the bees knees
Ahh the sound of a German shepherd drinking and I can vision the water trail lol😂
I feel really bad for the dude who bought that saw. He was trying to be nice, and the saw just wasn’t working out for him.
I was wait for this one. I kept lookin every hour to see when this got up😂
Trying to work out why I like the cut of this guys jib. Then worked out that we’re the same age nearly to the day.
Ryan Hall y'all is the second weather dude I watch, along with Oppenheimer ranch.
Hey love ur vids watched them for a while keep up with all the good work
The scroll saw can be a great addition. It’s like a hammer and a driver each tool has their uses.
That lure has goats balls 😂😂😂😂
I want to try and build a bait again because of this man

never fails to make quality content cant wait to see whats next
All in on extreme weather and lure making!
Holy crap! That's a big ol carp.
9:33 for the first time ever, I don't believe you lol
I love the videos they have inspired me to start making my own lures and baits
Nice for you to be back
I was watching with my kids and as soon as I saw the scroll saw I said “you’re not going to like it” and in the next clip you said “what if I don’t like it” 😂😂😂
Always a joy watching you make baits. Could you make a Vampire Bat for Halloween and do fun facts about them? Thanks
I asspire to make baits like you.
You mean you BASSpire
Bandsaw was the best thing I ever bought. For lure making
Nate, I've watched the Grinch episode numerous times and still love it! Maybe you could try a Fred Flintstone just for me?
Coop
i know you make baits but what if one day you made a rod and a bait and tried to catch a fish on both? it would be pretty cool to see you make and paint a rod!

you could try placing the cans upside down so that air doesnt get in and dry out the contents. i do that with paints etc and its been working so far
Yep, have Ryan, Andy and crew on when the naders come to dinner.
"Still really jumpy and weird" me too bro. Me too
Heck yeah I watch weather events even when they aren’t nearby. It’s exciting seeing storm chasers intercept tornados. I find weather just fascinating in general. Sounds like you watch Ryan Hall Y’all.
Bro! You gotta start hitting us with an ON To The TEST TANK! When it comes to the test tank.😂
Nice bonus fishing, well done.
Scroll saws work best on thin material
absoloutely scrumptious looking bait
I have an idea you should try with your wood lures. if you use a crumpled piece of brown paper bag and rub it on the white basecoat like using sand paper it smooths out the paint for the next layers and it will give you a nicer clearcoat.
Bob Saggett 😂😂😂😂 I felt that one.
I watch the weather events frequently but i work for a tree service that occasionally goes to other parts of the country to aid in clearing power lines to restore power
I know nothing about tools, including scroll saws. But that doesn't look right 😂
Yeah that table sucks, a good scroll saw is a thing of beauty but this is not one of them....
I actually liked the one with the chartreuse body line...I feel like that would work well here in TX
Getting into one day season!
That's the first carp of any species that I've seen caught o artificial bait. Very cool.
The scroll saw can be handy, but for sure I’d prefer the band saw.
I have found that if it’s grabbing and kicking the work up, I flip the blade over so it’s grabbing and pulling the work towards the table.
No clue if that’s the right way to use it, but it seems to help. 😂
@marlingbaits I had the same issue when I tried one. They are meant for this wood and artsy type projects
Some more tips for the scroll saw you should hold the wood with a firm grip against the table so it doesn’t flop around and you should buy some good quality blades and it may take a bit to break them in too.
I think you need those really thin wire looking type blades for that so you can turn easily as you're cutting.
Banging video love the look of the lure sweet ❤
"A squid eating dough in a polyethylene bag is fast and bulbous. Got me?"
My man is throwing shade today lol 😂 05:50
Wow! That's DIFFERENT 🤯
Right on!! Congrats man!!
I only use my scroll saw for lips and props. Works great for tight turns on lexan. Wood, not so much
Nice catch!
I would suggest making you a metal plate to replace the plastic circle. I don't know much about those saws so I have no clue how they are suppose to act.

Have you ever seen a frankenspitz lure? Might be an interesting lure to try and put your own spin on the design.
The scroll saw is usually used for thinner fine details so useing it for fins would be ideal
A scroll saw is all I have for this, and I wish every time for a band saw
Was the scroll saw mounted to the table? I like mine for some stuff, but wouldn't abandon your bandsaw!
Yup! Follow Reed Timmer and Vincent's streams whenever there is a chase going on
I can smell that cupcake cup from Florida!
Derpy sexy shad not a phrase I knew I needed to hear.
that was the chair, I didn't fart. ahahahahahhahhaha
I think this bait looks awesome! 👌 Hopefully, it's just a location thing. Looks like it could put in some work!
I have a band saw and scroll saw. To be honest, both are great to have, but neither are perfect for every job. I like scroll saw for certain things, but thickness of material really determines how it goes
People in the comments debating band saw vs. scroll saw should realize how good they have it. My jig saw setup would make an OSHA inspector implode
Ryan Hall is my weatherman too!
Thought you were making a mini dolphinfish whrn i saw the thumbnail 😅
