What amaze me is the time you put in to making a PDF file.
Can you make a Spin-n-Glo? they are costly also.  I like a Spin-n-Glo on the front of a squid fishing for Kokanee.
I like Spin-N-Glo also.  Used them for years for steelhead and salmon.  And found out that walleye like them here in Utah too.  Also cats.  Several of us cataholics are dragging around big Spin-n-Glow bodies ahead of a large chunk of carp meat with a circle hook in it. 

I have made up quite a few other goodies for kokes but haven't "tackled" a Spin-n-Glo yet.  Should be simple.  I will just cut and shape the foam body, put a plastic tube down the middle and then super glue in the two wings.  I'm anticipating it will take some careful cutting and fitting to get the right curvature on the prism tape wing.  But for koke Spin-n-Glows I could just paint the plastic in  hot colors too.  And a lot of them are plain white.  But I like hot pink...and there is some hot pink prism tape that will work.

The original design for the steelhead and salmon models included a wide head and a narrow tail end.  I plan to make some on both round and cylindrical shapes.  As long as the color and the action are good the shape should not be an issue.  I'll quarantine myself a little longer and work on it.  Will post up when I get something.  Here is a picture of some of the "bait floats" I already make.
