BBC Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Just our of curiosity...how many different molds do you have? I currently have 17 and sell lures from 13 of them. I was just wondering how many molds different people have and where you draw the line. Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloomisman Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 4 aluminum I think and probably 10 pop ones. Dont sell any thing from them. Need to though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtcald10 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 I have about 5 Aluminum, 5 POP, and 7 RVT ones. I currently only use about 6 of them for selling the rest are just for my own use. Baits work good just are not necessarily pretty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint308 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 I have 3 aluminum and one plaster ( i think). That is all I really want for variety, but would like more of the same to pour quicker. Saint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloomisman Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 forgot the silicone ones 6 of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDC Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 OK, I am ashamed. I have 5-6 aluminum molds, probably 10 RTV molds, and about 15 Resin/Bondo molds. Some are multiples for speed though. I also have +/- 15 molds that I don't use much cuz they are not perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBC Posted March 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 ok...I don't feel so bad now. I was looking at someone's website from TU and they only had 5 or 6 baits and I was starting to wonder if I was just going overboard with this thing.... oh, mine are a mix as well. about half are aluminum and half RTV and one epoxy mold.

alsworms Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Individual molds??? WAY too many to count. There was a time when my molds lined an entire side of my garage, about 6 ft. high and 10 ft. off the wall. I have since sold (or given away) most of my plaster molds, but I'd say I still have well over 2,000 total. Sad thing is I only use about 10 percent of those. Oh yeah......my wife HATES every one of 'em! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nova Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Thanks Cal; there's about 10 of those. Alex; I'll make a molds of anything if it will catch something,lol. I've got so many designs kicking around in my head I don't know which one to do next. Drives my wife nuts. We can be talking and the next thing she knows I'll take out my sketch pad and start drawing. Just finished a jerkbait and before that I did a flipping creature; then there was a "beaver" spin off and the big head worm. Oh yea; I forgot the swimbait. All of which will be on my site soon. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
