Posts: 1937 Location: Black Creek, WI | This custom Big Shot was made with a gold blade instead of the traditional copper. What do think looks better? Any ideas why Copper and Red is so popular in tannic stained water? Also... my son wants to name it the Hot Rod. Got any better name ideas?

Posts: 3240 Location: Racine, Wi | Jlo, hot rod is a rock'n name for that. I'm not sure why it is on the copper and red, but copper and chartreuse is another rock'n color, but for that color, clear water and bright days. There's something about copper. I think it's because not too many peeps are throw'n it. Keep up the good work! It's cool that it's a family process. My wife would laugh at me if I had her tying hair.  | ||

Posts: 1937 Location: Black Creek, WI | Hey Tuffy1, My kids are really into it. My youngest son, Ethan, has been designing his own Little Shots. Its amazing how creative they can be. He knows exactly what color hackle he wants, mixed with flashabou, and just the perfect blend of hair. He will stand there and watch Mom tie it up... and "correct" her if it isn't EXACTLY what he wants (heh heh). So funny. And... if we don't have the material he wants.... he's still young enough to lay on the floor and throw a tantrum trying to get mom to go to the store to buy it for him (heh heh heh). I tried that too.... but it seems to only work for kids 5 and under (ha ha). The Long Family is having a blast with this.
