Les Young Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 Who makes a mold close to the zoom swimmin chunk? I know jacobs has what he calls a snake head swimming trailer & thought Delmart had one, but don't see it. Would like to have something close to the zoom. I have 3 of the silicone handpour swimming chunks molds from lurecraft that work fine, but would still like to inject them if possible.

Painter1 Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 As easy as they are to hand pour, there may not be much market for an injection version but I will keep an eye out for such a mold and holler back if found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Young Posted September 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 (edited) There must not be. I've looked everywhere I can think of too. Googled it hard too. You would think zoom would be using one from the looks of theirs though. Thanks Edited September 6, 2016 by Les Young Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveMc1 Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Problem is Zoom has a utility patent on their chunks so you usually won't see copy's of theirs and they can be quite vigilant in protecting their patents/trademarks. Theirs are injected but they use machines and large molds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Young Posted September 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Dave, I understand that & have read quite a bit about zoom going after the little guys. I thought maybe someone had an injection mold that was kind of similar as I like a lot of action on my trailers. Looks like I'll be buying on from Jacobs then. Thanks I appreciate the help.

gone2long Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Just don't thinker going to find an injection mold of any chunk they are to easy to pour with open molds the big manufacturers will inject them but as was stated they are using $4000-$6000 molds with $60,000 injection machines.

Les Young Posted September 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 (edited) Yep looks like it. Oh well it was worth a try. I'll either hand pour or buy the snake head mold from Jacobs molds. Thanks guys. Edited September 6, 2016 by Les Young Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Young Posted September 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 (edited) I need to try a craw trailer mold too. Lol My favorite trailer of them all is the zoom swimming chunk, but I really need to get a craw mold to make some good natural looking crawls too.
