I have both of the molds and am using the Mustad EWG 9176BLN 28
-
That is a great place to buy skirts: fast, friendly, and good prices.
-
What type and size heads, style and size hooks, and which weedguard are we talking about here?
-
If it were me, I'd put 2 of them in and give it a try. I'd also set a timer and sit and watch them if I could.
-
I wasn't given an option of not paying the excise. If you can avoid it then maybe next share you'll have to do the ordering.
-
It is a deal if you want it. I just called in the order and they added an excise tax so the total is $129. I'll let you have half of them for $64.50 and ship them to you at my expense.
-
I have been quoted $108 + shipping.

I am needing some 4/0 Mustad 91768BLN and the best deal is on a 1000 hooks. I don't need more than 500 if that many. I'd like to find someone who would take the other 500 if possible.

I have an old spinnerbait mold that will only pour this time of year if I use a propane torch and heat the inside of it. I do it with the wire and hook in place. Otherwise I have to wait until July no matter what lead I am using.
-
Yep I have powder paint at least 10 years old. It packs from disuse but still fluffs up and paints.
-
I found that 12 g single strand electric wire does a pretty good jog in my fb mold. About a foot of it cut into 1" pieces made tons of pins. I can mold until my heart's content and pull the pins when I am done. Like stated I have to reopen the holes after I paint and bake the heads but it just takes a few seconds on each head. It also makes it a lot easier to tie on the skirts with no wg on.
-
Yes that makes sense. I only have 50 of them right on the work bench by the mold. Sometimes it is so hard to see the forest for the trees. Thanks.
-
I have a mold that I want to use without the pins and have no weedguard. The lead runs out the bottom of the mold when I don't have the pins in. I only want a tempory substance. I have tried modeling clay and it melts. What can I take a dab of and make a few jigs w/o weed guard or pin holes.
-
Golly that bout covers it cadman.
-
I must have the wrong kind of candle. I couldn't get it to work so I had to do the drain, clean, reload with my pot.
-
I have a candle and am heading to the shop to give it a try.
-
My heat gun came from Harbor Freight tools sales. I don't use it for powder paint but it gets a lot of use.
-
Thanks. I just picked up one at Wally World that says 10-30 gallon. It is very quiet but doesn't seem to put out much air. As soon as the silicone dries, I am hooking it up and trying it out.
-
I am finally getting around to building a fluid bed. I have searched and read many threads on the subject but have not been able to discern what size pump is best to get. I also live in a small town and will probably have to drive to a larger one to buy the pump. Where would be a good place to buy such a pump?
-
Copper won't rust. I have been using the windings out of an old table saw motor for the last 10 years and still have several hundred more pieces to go. I do prefer string tying them to wire though. It gives me much more control of just where I have the material when it is cinched down.
-
I don't see why.
-
Also what kind of mold is it?
-
You might try craft hair. It is easier to work with than deer hair and has a lot more action.
-
I buy mine from Stamina.

Patience, a dremel tool, a grinding disk on it.
