I use worm oil on metal rods. Soak a napkin and wipe it on the rods

Try to use a base color like yellow or tan ( not Black ) maybe then a lot of gold pearl and gold hi-lite

Lay the mold halves one at a time on a flat surface, cav. side down and see if it rocks back and forth when you push down on each corner ( one corner at a time )of mold half. Also mite have a burr on the mold some where and it is not letting it close all the way .

just in the bait cavity area ??

Price of plastisol really doesn't have anything to do with a vac. Its just us giving our opinion on the subject. Its just a debate, If a guy has his mind set on getting a vac that's great , his choice. I do not have one and do not need one but I do deal with bubbles. I also do not make clear baits. If I made clear baits I mite think differently about getting one . Every one has an opinion none are right or wrong.

Not sure ?? , but it looks like the only free shipping from MF mite be in gallons of plastisol ??? $ 68.75 per gallon - free shipping . it does not say free shipping on the 5 gallon pail .

I have a 3" twin tail ,,copy of yamamoto,,, but 1/4" longer body? If you are interested. I use for regular and hula grubs.

I have had water do this - if you leave the baits in the water too long. But they came back around after they dried out.I rarely ever use water anymore.

sounds like a clamp issue .. but I would make sure the molds are 100% true flat on the inside of the molds where they come together, They mite have a slight warp ? just a couple thoughts.
-
You would have to extend the legs on the pot I guess to get under there, or an extension on the valve maybe ?

This is what I get out of it . Right or wrong I do not know ? #1- promote yourself as a very good bait maker - do not sell your product to cheap . #2- Design and make your own bait . #3- Do not waste time,, while waiting for plastic to heat up - get other stuff ready. #4-Do not let bait making beat you. #5-Try to come up with your own style of baits.

Wow, that's different. looks like it does a nice job.
-
Needs to get a thermometer , to see what temps it is getting to. then get back with us. Also contact Plastisol maker for recommendations on temp limits.
-
I am not sure but I think the firmer the plastisol the thicker it will be at 350?
-
How do the baits pictured swim ? the 6 pictured that are 22cm/63gr
-
looks like .035 - .040 Kelly Green and Black flake .

It will be vary hard to get a stick bait heavier than a senko with just salt . I have added more and more salt and its very hard to get over 11 grams with a 5" . Not sure what to tell you to use? 6 level table spoons per 8 oz. is a ton of salt , and you will need to add softener also .

I also have a lot of runners, scraps , ect . I will do a large flat rate box for $30.00 and that includes the shipping cost of $ 22.00.
