twlureco Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 Well I started out making my own swim jigs, then onto airbrushing my own crankbaits, and now into pouring my own plastic. My supplies came in this morning and I can't wait to get started. I got a hand pour kodiak craw 4.25 to start out and have a few POP molds that I made ready to go.

Semi22lr Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 I did not see an injector in your supplies. Can you hand pour that mold? I thought all of Bear's molds were injection. I too am new to this and trying to learn. Can't wat to see your first pour in the Gallery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By not going with a starter kit and starting with the hand pour it saved me around 80-100 dollars. If it goes as planned I'll get the starter kit from bear's next!

twlureco Posted July 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Well here is my first batch of lures that I made in a watermelon seed color. I used a cup of calhoun plastic and 20 drops of watermelon colorant. About half a table spoon of .040 black glitter. I made the trick worm mold out of POP, the senko mold is a two piece mold out of POP, and the u-tail worm out of POP. I bought the brush hog mold and the kodiak craw mold. I'm exited to get back out and start pouring some different colors soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
