fisheye56 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Found the mold I need {do-it mold} It accepts the hook I want.{sickle type} Here is my questions. The mold has two sizes only the 1/16 is what i'm interested in, {only offer mold with cavities of 8 four of what size weight I need and 4 of a smaller size}but its seems to be the size {of this mold} that alot of threads are saying they have problems with. Its a minnow head type, Ok now the melting part from reading, temp is important when pouring molds so me heating with propane {is not the way to go}?A pot that has a way to adjust temp is where I need to go right? I'm not going to pour thousands now but later if my idea works I'll rethink.Am I on the right track?Thanks, p.s. not sure these need to be hard lead they will be lost{broke off}due to application, finess light line.This is for float-n-fly jigs.Thanks Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogajiga Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 My experience is that ladle pouring from a pot on a propane burner is not the easist method of pouring 1/16 & smaller jig heads. If you have fill out problems with clean soft lead, you might consider a bottom pour melter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
