Location: Richland Center, WI. | Nice looking creeper. How do you solder the loop on the wire? I have made a few thru wire lures but have to twist the ends. Tried the solder thing but could not get it to stick to the stainless wire I was using. Tried it with .051 wire and some .072 wire. Any help would be appreciated. |

use a 60/40 acid core solder and scuff the wire up with steel wool or emery cloth.
Doug and Corey,
THANKS! |

Location: Hastings, mn, 55033 | Can someone tell me how to resize pics using the paint program? Everytime I try to crop the image it removes most of what I want to be left and leaves a bunch of background. |

Go to the Image menu...Stretch/Skew...reduce the percentages in there and that should take care of it. |
