That’s a great idea! hadn’t even thought about trying that. Only idea I had thought of was pouring some plastic on a flat surface and then cutting them out and glueing them. I think I like your idea better lol

Thanks. Still new to carving, but getting better. Wanted legs for it, but figured it would be hard to do the appropriate size with a hand pour

I grew up doing a lot of redfish and trout fishing with live baits. Looking at all the soft plastic shrimp baits in the stores it always bothers me that on the retrieve they don’t move naturally. So I decided to make my own. I doubt it’s an original idea, but I haven’t seen anything like it in stores around here.

progress so far. Less bubbles this time around, figured out I can get rid of any bubbles on the surface of the bait with my heat gun once they set up a bit. Still playing with the colors

Mold is beautiful, just bubbles in the plastisol

Yah, I was having lots of bubbles in the cup before I ever poured. I’ll get one eventually, when I can afford it lol. I tried to pour as slow as I could, still learning the technique. Tested them in the tub and loved the action I got on them though, so that’s a plus lol

Got my first couple of baits poured and curing, I’m having some air bubble problems...is there a way to remove them without a vacuum chamber? Because I don’t have one.

Do you put a finish on the wood or just sand smooth? Using bass wood if it matters.

Getting ready to make some Open pour swim bait molds with smooth-on. I have the wooden masters sanded and smooth, but was wondering what I needed to seal them with to keep the silicone from sticking to them. I apologize if this has been answered, just couldn’t find it when I searched
