madbass Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Has anyone had this happen? They are very fine, running length-wise. I'm guessing they are from cooling/shrinking. Doesn't happen most of the time though. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Your mold might be cold. Or, if you are pouring two-color baits, you may be waiting too long between the first and second color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleury9816 Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 I had the same problem every now and then. I noticed that it stopped since I have began to heat my mold up before using it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigZ Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 If the mold is really cold, you might get some lines from the plastic cooling too fast. Most likely, the plastic is running down the side of the cavity, and when the cavity fills up it leaves a line where it fills in over the "stripe" of plastic down the side. Your plastic might be too cold too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
