Im currently trying to make a few right now and I was told to use a swivel and pins or you can use a plastic hinge cut to your size or you can make the hinges with sheet metal. but any who in tutorials there is a guy making a bait using pvc board but it shows you how to use the hinge style. well hope you figure it out. like I said im still working on it but good luck.

I have tried to search youtube with no luck but I was wondering what do I need for this. were can I buy the the parts. Any tips will help. Thank you, Again Michael

Can you melt Aluminun in a lee meltig pot, if so, is it just a piece of a aluminnum you buy from a metal supplyer. if not, what can you use besides a 2 part plastic or lead. is there another metal I should use. the reason why I ask Im trying to attempt to make some surface irons any advice is helpful Thank You.

hello I was trying to get ready to make a iron jig I haven't started yet. Im trying to get ideas on how to go about this I would like to due some made from metal and some from a hard plastic so they can be used as a surfae iron and yoyo, but what due you use to make a mold what type of metal besides lead. What type of plastic. or are there molds you can buy like swimbaits. My back ground in this is not much. I started building rods a year ago the about three monts into it I started lure making but only done swimbaits, I bought the molds and made some wahoo bombs and some knife lures. I dont have a melting pot for lead but looking to get one once I figure out how to make the iron jigs. i have some old ones to make a replica but looking to try some ideas i have. im not planing to sell there just for me and friends. I know its really not cost effective but I like to past the time when im not working.

I wanna get in to making swimbaits I found a couple of molds on lure craft. but what i was wondering what do i need to do this a list of supplies would be great thank you.
