dtrs5kprs Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 Ok, so it only took me a 10 months or so to post pics of my mother molds. The RTV grub mold was made about 2 days ago using the mother and Lure Craft RTV. When using a mother almost no trimming of the silicone mold is required. You also have the opportunity to trim some dead areas from the RTV mold you use to make your mother, reducing the volume of RTV required to mold = $$$. Trying to post a link to my previous post on these. If it does not work out maybe Red can lend a hand with that. http://www.tackleunderground.com/board/viewtopic.php?t=112&highlight=mother Hope it helps. Feel free to email Q's.

Senkosam Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 Nice job! Do your tails come out thin? Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtrs5kprs Posted February 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 As thin as the original mold. handpour plastic is so soft that a really thin tail is not necessary for good action...actually more of a problem as it will tend to tangle and tear on the jig hook. Real pain at 55'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
