I recieved my new mold today from fat guys fishing
Bass-Boys replied to Les Young's topic in Soft Plastics
Mark,, Well a Bud Light can is 5" ...... So umm ?? -
What I have noticed with older plastisol is the Heat stabilizer goes away so you mite want to add heat stabilizer to it. Other than that the old plastisol seems to be just fine .
-
What are you using now ? I use a tooth pick for small baits ,, the handle on a small paint brush for some, the big flat end of a wooden skewer on larger ones.
-
I think that is what kinda replaced this mold. Not exact but similar.
-
I think that exact mold is discontinued. It is either Bobs or Bass Tackle. I had this mold some years back . Is it a 5" ? Frank also had it -- If its the mold I am thinking of .
-
Sounds like you mite just need to warm the mold before pouring ? If so, not sure the proper way to warm silicone molds. Maybe pour it with a color you can cut up and reuse. Maybe a Hair dryer. I do know after they get heated up they hold the heat and maybe to much heat .
-
Wow, gluing them would be challenging but it looks like does work !
-
Shipping cost are bad these days ,, Maybe add a couple items that you will need later on to your order ?? Gas is also almost $ 3.00 a gallon . Do you think that bait pictured would be helped with a kill dot ?
-
perfect ,, just checking .
-
Is your injector close to running out of plastic when you shoot the mold?
-
Can you show us a picture of the bait with bubbles.

Soft plastic changed color just by adding salt :(
Bass-Boys replied to Flymantex's topic in Soft Plastics
It has to be the salt ... the type of salt .. I Have added salt after I made a non salted bait a lot of times, and as Jig Man said it just needs more color when salt is added so I could see a couple more drops of black needed to get the smoke color. But I have never saw a bait turn blue when salt is added. -
Your posting this question in the wrong spot.. Ask in the Soft Plastics Thread below the Pinned topics. Anyway . put a very thin amount of Worm oil on the inside of mold before pouring.

I have lived in Michigan all my life and as a kid it was fun ,, but the last 20 years I have not liked it at all. It's been below 0 at night and 15-20 degrees during the day time - Sucks !
-
It can be done , but I would give it more than 3 months before I would quit my day job.
-
Yes 5" are apx. 11 grams -- Bryanmc I am sure you know that allready . I also do not use a 6" .
-
I do not think its a blending block,, its a lamination block,, but with Franks direction on temps it can be used as a Blending block. That's the way I am thinking anyway.
-
good to hear , thanks Les.
-
The early samples I got from Polysol maybe before Bait Plastics ? not sure . I did not like, baits got very oily after just a few days from pour date. Maybe they improved on that , they said they would work on it . I never did buy any at that time.I also had the Do-it plastisol get oily after they were bagged awhile. That was a few years back also .
-
agree.
-
220-240 seems pretty course for final sand to me ??
-
Travis,, Is that picture really from 2006?
-
After your mold is done, you will be able to make plenty more .
-
Electric Mixer for making cakes and such ! ? Just redesign the beaters . if needed. Use on lowest speed that will mix the plastic.
