champ198 Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 what i mean is is there a way to make a mold out of some type of material tha i have around my home or is easy to get? i have one bait that is no longer beng made and i love the way it works but i can no longer find them i know for soft plastics that you can make molds out of Paper Mache but was wondering if there is some way to copy a bait mold for lead. i wasnt sure due to the heat of them so thought i would ask here and see what you all thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psv Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 Plaster of Paris is probably the cheapest material for the mold. if you need to make just couple lures, it'll work for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vodkaman Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Polyester resin (fibreglass resin) is readily available and should be good for a couple of hundred pours. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
