How To Duplicate a Lure in CAD for 3D Printing

This page will be a series of videos where I will show how to duplicate a fishing lure for 3D printing. This process can be used to either make your own complete lures or just the first step in making 3D printed stencils for airbrushing store bought lure blanks. This video will cover the design of a 2.5″ Square Bill Crankbait.

STL files for the finished Lure w/stencils can be purchased from CULTS3d.com for $5.00

This first video is Step 1 in the series and will cover the basic overall design of the lure.

This is the third video in the series where I finalize the lure for printing and create the stencils.

This is the fourth and final video in the series where I show how to duplicate a fishing lure for 3D printing. In this step show the process of assembly, painting, and how the lure works, as well as soon additional footage of the stencils in use.  All of the principles learned in these series of videos can also be applied to designing your our lures also.
