Les Young Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 Does this mold make good laminates? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canga~ Posted October 12, 2019 Report Share Posted October 12, 2019 in my experience none of the ripper molds make good laminates. i have heard (and seen i guess) that i can be done, but i was never able to do it, that 90* bend in the runner makes it difficult (though not impossible). i was looking at the ripshad from fat guys fishing, similar looking bait, and its an 8 cavity top inject, WAY more expensive thoug. i reached out for a couple samples a couple times and he said he would send some and never did, so i never went through with the order, but his molds look good!

Fishermanbt Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 Search title “Aluminum injection mold laminates?”. I posted a picture of how I was able to get laminates by cutting the bait, putting it back in the mold and shooting the next color. Just have to remember to cut the nose at an angle to create a ramp for the next color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Young Posted October 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 I thought about buying it & just adding enough color (other than the main body color) to give it a hue like black, blue, chartreuse, pink etc. I figured the baits could be cut & make a laminate with so i may try that too. How does the 3'' compare to the 3.5 as far as size goes. Most use 3.3 & 3.8 kietechs around here. I willl be fishing them in really clear water highland lakes if that makes a difference what size to get. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
