Screw Eye testing

Made a change to the way I make and install screw eyes thus testing was required before being installed into any lures. Worked really well in the end, need to setup a new test system as couldn't get anymore weight on during this test. Pic tells the story. Screw eyes are 1.2mm and 1 inch in length. Made them with a small addition to improve their holding capacity and reduce likelyhood of "unscrewing". Combined weight in the picture is 120lb held for two hours and did not break. Will come up with something else to support more weight and we will see how high it gets.
