AZ Fisher Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 I've been hand pouring for myself with silicon molds for several years now. Now that there is a reasonably priced Senko mold available now I thought I would step up to injection molding. Thinking about the 6oz injector from Basstackle to start with along with a Senko mold from LPO. Aside from some extra o-rings is there anything else I should order as well? I have plastic, colorants and all that stuff already. Any advice to shorten my learning curve would be welcomed, plus I'm a cheap bastard so any way to save some $ LMK Thanks in advance!!!, Will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 If you haven't already, read the recent Senko posts over the last month. There may be stuff there that will help you. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ Fisher Posted January 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Thanks Dave! I did read a couple of the posts and that's what got me fired up about switching to injection. I saw where Mark got his injector from Basstackle and that seems to be the best price for an injector with a locking cap in the 6oz size. Bob's info about salt was very helpful. I just don't want to order the stuff and find out I also needed something else I hadn't thought about. Stay safe over there Dave and thanks for your input! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonteSS Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I would get the injector and Senko mold from Bait Junkys. Grab some soft plastic there as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roberdober Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 FNG asking a question here. Are most of your injectors universal or are they proprietary. I just bought my first mold. The mold I bought looks like it has a 5/8" intake gate. It doesn't appear the vendor has an injector listed on website sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone2long Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 Most if not all manufacturers are using 5/8 as a standard, some jacob's molds might be out there that are not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
