Les Young Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Would it be good to make copy's of jig trailers that have very thin tails to hand pour if the putty is poured thick? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anglinarcher Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 If I was buying product, I would go to Hobby Lobby and get some Alumilite HS3 for the job. Get the 40% off coupon and the price is pretty low and I KNOW that would work. If you have the material already, then I guess you will just need to give it a try.

Travis Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 (edited) You are good to go. One of those things that success is more a reflection of the user not the product. Plenty of old posts on making rock puddy molds. Like most things everyone has their quirks and "reasons" for doing things. I am a huge proponent of keeping it simple.... add water...mix until the correct consistency.... pour the mold....let set up overnight... air dry.....seal with thinned devcon. I see no need for weighing of material, measuring volumes, adding additives (milk or vinegar to retard not needed or glue), baking, mold, etc.... I have several simple design molds (jig trailers, reapers, etc..) that have been in service for over a dozen years with thousands of baits made from them.

Slammingjack Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 I also have molds make with it, works great. imho I like better then pop. Not as chalky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Young Posted May 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Thanks guys. I was given some & thought if it worked pretty good I'd use it for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
