Thought I would share something I have put together for a friend. See what you guys think. As you all know, I don't make these for sale so these aren't for sale due to the time consuming process which take about 3 times the amount of time in compare to a conventional jig. But I guess if I want Black Nickel Sickle Hooks with painted colors to my liking, there isn't an easy way. Something to note... If you are planning to make these, Vinyl Paint would be the choice. Don't spend hours like me digging out the powder paint after baked to make the swivels turn freely. Broke off many and had to redo. One other thing... size 1/16oz as shown isn't easy when consider the ring size and spoon size is "00" So if you got big clumpsy hand, I suggest you shouldn't try pulling your hair out!!! All are 1/16oz with Black Nickel Sickle Hooks and size "OO" ring and spoon... Red/Red/Chartreuse  Orange/Orange/Brown  Yellow Chartreuse/White/Yellow  Chartreuse/Hot Pink/Chartreuse  Top secret color combo (that's why there are 10 of these...hehe)  Hot Pink/Light Pink/White  Candy Chartreuse/Chartreuse/Orange  Candy pink/Off-Green/Chartreuse  Purple/Chartreuse/Blue  Enjoy!!!

Tell the buyer the ones in the second,third,and fourth, pic are no good in Texas as soon as he or she agrees attach all of them to that little hat you like to wear, call me and we will make arrangments to go to Lake Whitney on the condition you bring the hat or wear it.

Looks great CV. !! The ponyheads do take some patience.  Sandwich Maker sent me a nice selection of all the TINY rings and TINY blades and heads, it takes to make them work ! ( I know his ears burned for a few days after I got them) but it does get easier and quicker the more I do !!

As usual, CV, superb work! I really like the small willow blades, also. I use mostly the brass ones, it gives a little different action.
You are right about the time involved, but they are worth the effort if you are a RR addict. Like you said...to get the hook you want. Or the color(s)
