Materials

All decoys are printed in one of three material types chosen specifically for their mechanical and aesthetic properties: PETG, PLA+, or Glow PLA.

Caring for Your Decoy

Store it indoors away from the sun and don't use it as a hammer. That's about it.

Prolonged exposure to sunlight can wear out the phosphorescent properties of glow decoys prematurely.

I do recommend using an appropriately sized thimble for the wire rope hanging loop to prevent kinking and maximize longevity. A 3D printed thimble will be included with all standard decoys going forward, and a steel one is included with all premium/custom/ 24"+ sizes. Wire rope thimbles can be found at most hardware stores and online retailers, even Amazon. If at any point the wire rope shows any signs of wear or degradation, remove it and replace it with either a new length of wire rope and crimp fittings, or any appropriately strong line of your choosing. I will install a new one free of charge if you want to stop by or cover shipping to/from the BM Decoy office.
