barr5150 Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 I've looked around a bit I haven't seen any for sale. Making the molds yourself doesn't appear to be all that easy and I haven't found a great deal of info on how to even do it. I know there are companies that will make cranks for you but what about just the mold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillbilly1 Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 In all my years Iv only seen 1 set of factory run crankbait molds out side the factory. It was at a recycling center. They were a nice 20 peace aluminum injection mold and the center was paying by the pound more than I could afford so off they went I all most cried. Its a long shot you could try contacting a bait company and see if they have any discontinued models that they have the mold for but like I said its a long shot. Or do as I do make your own with RTV start out slow 1 bait 1 mold till you get it right then do a multi bait mold the most I do is 4 or 5 at a time.

barr5150 Posted April 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Hillbilly your recent post is what sparked my intrest in pouring my own baits. AWESOME work by the way! Your video was great! I can't wait, like I'm sure alot of others on this board, for the higher quality videos. Especially the ones on making your own mold! I'm not sure I have the patience for making the molds but I'd like to try. In the mean time I thought if I could by a set and figure out how it works I'd be pretty happy. I'm not looking to start a buisness or anything, just pour a few for me and some friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
