Husky Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 I just posted a tutorial on how to make a Bondo mold and subsequent Foam lures, in the hardbait tutorial section. Thanx for the inspiration, Shawn. Some new Foamies. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v476/Grmstr/1.jpg Two foamies. The bottom one is lead loaded and has a steeper lip angle to get it deeper. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v476/Grmstr/4.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vytautas Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 Hey Mike, Great tutorial!!! I've just finished playing with my molds. Found new trick - mixing epoxy with the concrete. Actually as I found out in softplastic tutorial (http://www.tackleunderground.com/index.php?page=10&mode=article&k=27) I use not the epoxy, I use Polyester fiberglass resin Will post some pics later vytautas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coley Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 Great tutorial. I have always wanted to try foam and now I think I will. But, with my luck so far, I'll leave out the plastic coating. Coley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
