B.P.R 2,798 Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 Anybody know how to make a manual lure machine? I can't afford one of them fancy ones that run on a car battery and for the amount of use it would get it's a waste of money. Was thinking something similar to a peddle action on a bike but I'm crap at DIY. Anybody got any ideas Quote Link to post

rapidjenky 97 Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 ive made my own from a RC car starter motor, we ran it the other day had 20+ if not 30 runs of around 500 yards round 2 corners. 5 lads with 9 dogs running them for around 3 or 4 hours. i used my 9AH lead acid battery, put it back on the trickle charge when i got home and it was charged back to full in 5 hours, ive used it for a few hours lamping and it can take 24hrs to recharge after that so these motors dont use my juice! heres a pic of mine i made, it all slots together and folds up and i put it in my little back pack. 1 Quote Link to post
