Thanks Cami

I have a Gilly lure mold. The Gilly lure has an air pocket in the head of the lure that keeps it upright while retrieving. How do you pour the mold to get the air pocket in the lure?

That would make an incredible cicada if someone built it

Try wrapping it like a guide from several inches past it in both directions.

I called Aluminite and they said they do not carry it anymore but their parent company sells this product that is supposed to take its place. https://polytek.com/products/bc-8655-kwik-kast-ii-blue-urethane-resin

Great idea

Just make a silicone mold If you find a few. Very easy

It’s really simple to do.

I;l take the carrot and 1 fork tail

Sounds like it may not have been mixed enough

Awhile back someone showed a tool they made that gave better action to trolled lures by using a disk to catch the top of waves and pulling down the rod and then releasing it causing the lure to dart. It was simply a round disk at the bottom with a hollow tube attached to the center of the disk at a 90 degree angle. A piece of bungee type cord was run thru the tube/disk and tied off. The other end comes out the top of the tube and is attacked to the fishing rod (guide I think) towards the top and hangs down just touching the water. When water catches the disk, it will pull down the rod and let it snap back making the lure move erratically. The plans for this was shown here. I am looking for that posting because I want to build some. Will someone point me to the post or the guy that posted it. Thanks

Try using some heavy duty aluminum foil

I don’t understand

Just saw that …… thanks. Don’t know why it came up as a new post.

Soooooo ……… you want to get paid to help students cheat …….. NO NICE

I would not use a microwave for cooking food after I cooked plastisol in it. Microwaves are not that expensive and I wouldn’t take a chance. Besides, it may make your food taste funny or worse.

Thanks ...... just placed an order

Thanks for the info ....... just placed an order

I’ve not done that. I’m not sure how or if it would hold up. First, the paint would have to be heated to over 300 degrees for the powder paint to melt and cover. If that did hold up, you would be binding powder paint to an overheated paint so it may not hold up. I don’t know how a regular liquid colorant would be applied to a hard surface without mixing it with a paint substrate. Liquid colorant is supposed to be mixed with another medium like paint or plastisol

After they are made and fully cooled (several days), place them into boiling water for a few seconds ....... maybe 10 seconds. A friend of mine does this with his lures that are store bought and swears it works to make them softer and sturdier

Nightmares are dreams too ........ just make sure yours are not

I thought I saw a discount code for TU members at Lurepartsonline awhile ago. Is there one and what is it?

Still no response ........ this needs to be taken down

I pm’d you but no response This seems to be a scam. I have posted here and pm’d a couple of times with no response
