I specifically subscribed to this channel because I learn things here that are edited out elsewhere. Love it. Also love the science and math, even though I usually avoid it whenever I can.
Leave the mistakes in we make them, it is good to see you make them also. Leave the nerdy stuff in also. I have been building wooden lures for about ten years but still learn from your channel.
Knowing the problems that can arise helps to learn not only what to do , but also what not to do. Most videos don’t show any problems or failures, so you don’t have any idea of what could definitely go wrong, or what you can do to correct it. Having some engineering background, curiosity about how things work, and a love to build them myself makes your videos so much more informative and enjoyable to watch. I admire your desire and ability to explain your thoughts and calculations in the process of building lures. Thanks for not being afraid to show the world you are human; keep up the great work.
Thank you so much for your comments.. I really enjoy all the experimentation and sometimes the failures are just as fun as the successes. It's great to hear that others are getting something out of my videos. Cheers.
Keep the killer videos coming Franco, love them! And definitely keep the goof ups included. We all learn from our mistakes, and watching yours help reduce the learning curve. Can't wait to see how they swim.
Leave the goof ups in. Great learning tool and the engineering approach of troubleshooting is very relatable! Awesome showing that you can do good plastic swimbaits without $1,000's of molds and injectors!
Yeah it's good to see the mistakes and how you overcome them. As you said it wouldn't be the Engineered Angler without some experiments, that's what we love!
Love the videos! I’ve really learned a lot from you over the years. I say leave the mistakes/trials in. It helps everyone. If someone doesn’t want to watch that they can fast forward through it I guess. Also the swimbaits remind me of shrimp with the big bulgy black eyes like that. You could probably modify the last toothbrush to make a shrimp lure for inshore fishing pretty easy.
Keep the goof-ups please! I love seeing them because I learn so much. Also, you are very good at explaining why they may have happened. I appreciate it!
Leave the mistakes in. Real life that happens to all of us. Love the engineering term hippie comet clay. Wonder if a dye or food coloring would work in one part of the silicone. Love the build vids.
Great stuff Franco! Please include ALL the details, the math, the nerdy bits, the successes and the fails in your videos! The way you analyze and test the problem is xcellent - thanks for sharing that. I used to make a mold-release when I was doing a lot of plaster casting that you might want to try. It was made from a bar of yellow laundry soap (think the brand was "Sunlight") melted in a double-boiler with a tablespoon of cooking oil and a bit of water. The mixture is firm (like butter from the refrigerator) when set. The mold-release is applied by working the surface with a soft damp brush and painting the foam on to the surfaces to be protected. The foam dries to a thin film that allowed good detail and let the mold halfs and the pattern separate easily. It worked much better than Vaseline with plaster and wood, don't know how it would work with silicone. Stored in a plastic container with a lid (like an old margarine tub), the mold-release keeps forever.
I have to agree with the folks saying they like the errors and fails. I have an idea for a lure nobody sells that would catch fish from the surf out to pelagics offshore. I think soft plastic would be best and I tried a couple times to make molds but failed. I need the right blank to start with, that's my biggest hangup now. So I appreciate seeing your problems because I might avoid my own. So thanks for the lessons!
Pretty cool Franco I don't know that I would have spent that much time on it..... but I am glad that you did and by the way please include all of your goof-ups...as a matter of fact you should make a video of nothing but goof-ups.... that would be interesting
I will take the videos with the goof ups. Makes it original. Plus helps us learn a lot more. And yes we all make mistakes and learn from them. Thank you very much for your videos.
I have been waiting for this video. So happy it finally hit. And I know it hasn’t been that long since the first. But I don’t do well with things left undone lol. Also. I love how the video is put together. I forgot we were making toothbrush swim baits and all in on the experiment. Great job. Can’t wait to see how it does in the water and see some fish caught on it
Another great installment. I vote to leave the boo boos. Others (including me) learn from them. Bloopers are funny too. If we aren’t having fun while doing this, it isn’t worth doing.
From the comments so far (50) it's unanimous, keep the mistakes, foul ups, side experiments and materials testing. The bloopers are pretty funny as well.
I purchased some of that silicone to try. Before pouring my first mold, I was wondering if you figured out what type of clay to use to avoid the gooey contact area from the clay you used. Was the first time I had heard there are different types of clay that need to be used
How about making a fail video? What misstakes that can come, when they come how to correct them. When is a misstake to much and just start over. Im gona TRY to make a lure with a couple of your ideas in it. But in the back of my head its "what if after 3 days making the lure such and such happens" so i postpone the start... realy enoying 🤦♂️ great film again
please keep in the goof-ups. not everything is simple and straight forward, if you edit them out then it might discourage folks who try to copy you and have issues along the way. Just my 2 cents.
keep the mistakes! best way to learn... Edison found 102 ways how NOT to make a light bulb before the good one! maybe don't include THAT many mistakes...LoL
Franco, I'm a maker, therefore every test, mistake and insight you may give us it's a highly valuable piece of information.
Thank you.
Like the goof ups and experements !

It's great to hear from fellow lure makers, especially an experienced one.. Thank you
I agree, keep the trial/error experiments in as we are always wiser after the event. Excellent video Franco
Will do

I agree. Thanks
You never seem to amaze me. Experimenting and testing is the scientific way! Thanks for the great video.
Love to see the goof ups, bloopers and off-hand comments... "Hippie Vomit" clay 😄
😊
Yeah it's good to see the mistakes and how you overcome them. As you said it wouldn't be the Engineered Angler without some experiments, that's what we love!
Well I love doing them...thanks
The goof-ups and experiments are nuggets of gold, and you're giving them away for free, please continue doing so :)
Will do...
I seem to learn more from your videos than any other channel! Leave those experiments and trial and error stuff in there sir! Great job 🤙
Will do. Thanks

Nice idea💡

Good video again Franco. IMO leave the videos with mistakes, issues etc. That’s what I love about them, you’re only human! Lol
Leave the mistakes in. Real life that happens to all of us. Love the engineering term hippie comet clay. Wonder if a dye or food coloring would work in one part of the silicone. Love the build vids.
I don't mind the mistakes or experiment in your videos, it's a great way of learning about this stuff so I like when you leave it in your videos

Thanks for the recipe...I might give it a shot
Keep the goof ups & experiments!!
I prefer all the knowledge I can get so definitely show experiment and mess up's . Thanks for showing us how to do it great video
I feel it is good to see the mistakes and the problem solving. That is an important part of learning.
Nice job 👍

Keep trying...you'll figure it out.
I like seeing the goof ups.I don't feel so bad when I make them and it also makes me laugh.
Pretty cool Franco I don't know that I would have spent that much time on it..... but I am glad that you did and by the way please include all of your goof-ups...as a matter of fact you should make a video of nothing but goof-ups.... that would be interesting
Awesome job Franco
Keep the mistakes in so we can learn from them & list what you use also. Nice pour Franco
I will take the videos with the goof ups. Makes it original. Plus helps us learn a lot more. And yes we all make mistakes and learn from them. Thank you very much for your videos.
keep the goof ups, totally makes the video better. were only human, its nice to know everyone makes mistakes!
Like the experiments!!!!!!!!
I have been waiting for this video. So happy it finally hit. And I know it hasn’t been that long since the first. But I don’t do well with things left undone lol. Also.

Hippievomit Clay made my day 😋
nice film mate
Thank you.
Make more soft lures please
Really enjoy these - keep in the F*-ups! They're real life and very useful to helping learn
Leave the experiments and mistakes in. It keeps the videos more entertaining, therefore easier to pay attention to and learn from.
From the comments so far (50) it's unanimous, keep the mistakes, foul ups, side experiments and materials testing. The bloopers are pretty funny as well.
Will do.
Those who don't learn from mistakes are doomed to repeat them.
Hippy vomit clay - is that a trade secret Franco?
I like to "paint" with the mica right on the silicone mold before pouring.
I purchased some of that silicone to try. Before pouring my first mold, I was wondering if you figured out what type of clay to use to avoid the gooey contact area from the clay you used. Was the first time I had heard there are different types of clay that need to be used
Be sure to watch the next video it will answer your questions.
I assume it’s coming Friday?
Leave the mistakes, that’s how we learn.
Franco everything helps show it all.
We learn by mistakes, mistakes make us better
Take it on the water. I was kinda waiting for that pivotal moment... Or did you leave it out for other reasons.
Time.
Leave the goof up in we all do them
Leave the goof ups there
DAMMMMMMNNNNNN your epic!
Sorry....can´t find link to the new silcone.....or i´m blind.... 🙂
I didn't put the link in because I'm not quite sure it's going to be worth buying. I'll have a follow-up later on.
Do you have one on a pour in mold
Not sure what you mean
@@EngineeredAnglera side pour in mold I am just asking I have to do everything on a budget
How about making a fail video? What misstakes that can come, when they come how to correct them. When is a misstake to much and just start over.
Im gona TRY to make a lure with a couple of your ideas in it. But in the back of my head its "what if after 3 days making the lure such and such happens" so i postpone the start... realy enoying 🤦♂️ great film again
Looks like you aren't far off from a shrimp pattern that flicks the tail using those toothbrushes as a start
interested to see the action
Keep.the problems in the video. Let's see you fish those things. And what about just shaping the toothbrush in to a lure and adding hooks?
Mistakes teach more than a perfect result....leave them in.
Do your thing, mistakes are unique.
I like to see the mistakes that shows that everybody on UA-cam is not perfect
Show all the goofs, etc.
And if there is a fish interested is dental hygiene he’s on !!!
I think it’s valuable to see what didn’t work
Just started following you sir , love it . Are available via phone or may I share my number? Ty
Thanks so much...if you have a question just post it here or Instagram and I'll try to help. Cheers
Show it all so people learn from your mistakes.
please keep in the goof-ups. not everything is simple and straight forward, if you edit them out then it might discourage folks who try to copy you and have issues along the way. Just my 2 cents.
Good point. Thanks
keep the mistakes! best way to learn... Edison found 102 ways how NOT to make a light bulb before the good one! maybe don't include THAT many mistakes...LoL
keep fails in part of the process man
