Tubeman Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) Was talking to a soft plastics rep yesterday when this bait company came up in conversation. It will great when the tech to 3d print on soft plastics will become affordable to smaller bait companies ! Maybe it is already and someone here knows ? www.nextgenbaits.com Edited July 27, 2017 by Tubeman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Driftwood Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Link took me to their website. Looks like an infomercial for their product. The 3d printing I have seen so far would not produce a flexible soft plastic bait. Maybe the mold for the bait was a 3d printed mold???

Baitjunkys Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 90% sure hes talking about 3d printing aka painting design on the bait itself. Not molds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubeman Posted July 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 From what I know, they shoot their baits white and print over them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveMc1 Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Almost the same as pad printing, which I am sure they are doing here. Usually only see that in the chinese made baits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toadfrog Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 May have to see if I can pull that off in the man cave . I was half asleep and thought it was molds too . But then my folks always thought that followed me from birth . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
