gone2long Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 If you mean Del Mart Molds yes they are very good quality and no he is the manufacturer of his molds, I do recommend that you order through Lurecraft as they carry his molds and delivery is good.

Bass-Boys Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 one of the best molds made. and there are other great molds out there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNC Molds N Stuff Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) I have seen some of Del's work and its very good. Delbert makes his own molds in Phoenix. He used to be a regular here on TU, but I have not seen him on in a while. Edited April 23, 2014 by Bob La Londe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nedyarb Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 I love his molds.........but like already stated, order through Lurecraft.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flbasspond Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 I have several of his molds and all are top shelf...very easy to pour. -Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Del was one of the first to make these high-detailed aluminum molds. GREAT, GREAT product, but I think he fell victim to supply and demand. It happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone2long Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Think your right on both points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nedyarb Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 I may be wrong on this, but I was led to believe he makes different ( non fishing ) type products that he makes his real money with. So the lure molds get second priority! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone2long Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 It's been a long time but I though I heard he was an aerospace engineer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveMc1 Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 It's been a long time but I though I heard he was an aerospace engineer? He's a machinist, I have hear a TON of BS come out of his mouth over the years so I am hard pressed to believe anything he says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNC Molds N Stuff Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) He does/did aerospace part machining, and has recently started doing firearms parts. I seem to recall seeing a message in another forum that he was waiting on his approval as a firearms manufacturer (FFL-7) from the State Department to manufacturer restricted serial numbered parts like receivers. I believe he was working with Ruger on the .22 magnum version of the 1022 rifle. Before somebody jumps in to correct me the ATF does issue FFLs, but the State Department takes a bite too for manufacturers.

When you are doing machine work its easy to get a taste of design in a lot of areas. I could claim to be a medical equipment designer by that stretch. What I really did was design and make a small bracket and hanger to mount the dispenser for disposable covers to the equipment instead of having to put hanger studs in the wall for it. Basically a plate with two screw holes, and two hanger studs. But now I am a medical equipment designer. LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNC Molds N Stuff Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 P.S. In another forum Del said he had handed off management of the mold business to April. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
