Swirls With Single Injector

Recommended Posts

Waiting for a order through del for some molds, plastic and injector. Have been trying to work out a way to get multiple colours with a normal injector. The only thing i could think of was to fill the injector half way with one colour and then the rest with the second. Give it a light shake and then shoot the molds.

Has anyone tried this yet???

By the time you get all that done you will either have hot plastic running everywhere out the tip, or the tip will cool off making it impossible to inject.

You can get somewhat of a swirl by making the 2 colors seperate and then slowly pouring them into a cup. Then use your injector and suck up the plastic and inject.

You can only get a decent shot on the first run so don't make to much plastic.

Even this way, the swirls are still so-so... Nowhere as good as a split cup and hand pouring the bait. Just can't hand pour all molds though...
