justinchandler Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 I have the two part mold from Del-Mart. When my pours start to cool....it causes the plastic to sink in at the top, causing a small hole in the head of my senko. What am I doing wrong? Also, I have tried pouring laminates, and I keep getting the "cold crack". I have tried heating my mold, what else should I do? Thanks!

dampeoples Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 Top the mold off once it starts to sink. Don't wait so long on the laminates to pour the second color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ottoman Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 or just over pour the mold ( not much) so it sucks the plastic down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dink Master Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Top off the mold. Watch this video from mbroggi1 http://www.dropshots.com/MBroggi#date/2008-02-02/15:26:18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishinfool/2 Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 cold cracks/ pour your second color before the first cools all the way. try only one at a time till you get it figured out. i pour bobs split-tail claws and about 30 seconds pour my black to fill mold . works great make sure your plastic is hot.

mradamh Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Where do I get one of those pots? Only seen smaller types w/out the nozzle. Is that homemade?

dampeoples Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Ozark Tackle was selling pots once, you can check there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mradamh Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Thanks dp, now I've gotta figure out how to build that mixer set-up. I like pouring with a micro and pyrex, but that system mbroggie has is too nice not to try out...gotta have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dampeoples Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Can do that with a Lee pot as well, if you do some searches, I've seen some pretty nifty stirrers posted here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
