I have one of the spinner making tools like Gary showed only made by YOST which is very sturdy. I have made probably thousands of spinners with it and it still works like new. About 10 years ago I was making spinners for retail sale thru a fellow that ran Hook Line & Sinker bait shop in Hillsboro Ore. It even has a cutter which cuts the wire off when you finish. It sure makes it nice to have it and a some componantes with you so when you loose that only spinner that is catching fish you can whip out another just like it to keep catching fish.
