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.
-
If you tug on the tails just shortly after unmolding you should know rite away if you have a good bond. That has worked for me anyway.
-
I think he wants to know what size -- ROD -- you used in the mold for the core shot ??
-
How are you heating plastic now ? More molds also lets some cool while you fill others.
-
To save money -- Yes that's why we all do it .. But it never happens !!! The price of a half dozen molds and supplies could buy a lot of baits !! We love it , that's why !
