    looking for a good lead melter

    I have two lees pot 5709 that I purchased awhile back for plastic melting, but i gave up on it after it started to burn my plastic. I'll let it go for 40.00 each + Shipping. Or both for 70+ship. Let me know if you are still interested. This have a spout on the bottom very similar to https://www.lurepartsonline.com/Lee-Production-Pot-IV I can send you the pics, pm me with your no. Let me know
  2. I love Bondo too. They did warp after awhile. Although i but a tile slab for a day and it was good as new the next day
  3. I see. Thanks for sharing Frank. I have to go and get those large 5cup measuring cups now, lol.
  4. Was this recepie correct? 4 cups???? Not 4 oz?
  5. Does anyone have this mold please? Thanks in advance!
  6. Yeah, that happened to me too... when i overcooked my mix :(.
  7. From what i have learned here. Don't shake your plastisol box vigorously which might cause bubles in the longer run. Just turn the box couple times daily. That should mix the hardener that settled in the bottom after couple days and before use. Also don't throw your mushy stuff out. save it in a ziplock and use a small portion whenever you can That is what i learned in this great community so far . ** cheers
  8. Yeah, I don't doubt about the labor on that. You can see the amount of work put on those worms by looking at it and from all the posts on here. PM me if you guys planning on selling me some . They look too great to be fished with lol.
  9. I don't know the amount of sheets you are looking for, but you can always negotiate the price with the vendor. Or if you have a re-sale license ... you know the drill http://www.widgetworksunlimited.com/PETG_Thermoform_Plastic_s/49.htm
  10. Thanks guys. I really appreciate the advices. I can't wait to find the time to try all these advice. I am sure somehow I'll get this right
  11. I've been doing some research on RC Car Making and this might help to create a shell packaging for some. Or maybe someone already posted . I think there should be some thin cheap plastic materials to create the shell.
  12. Wow, this is so cool. I got so much information and input on things i have not done/ done improperly. Yes I am using a rotating Microwave, and i was also measuring temperatures with an IR gun. I didn't think the temperature would matter if taken with an IR after you stir it. I am not laminating it. I usually make my baits during the weekend, I guess i'll stir the plastisol daily (that should solve my micro bubbles I hope). I don't think it's a bad batch myself. It's just me since I am still in a learning process. Thanks guys. I'll let you guys know how it goes .
  13. Sorry, so it turns yellowish in the process of jelly state, so it's not pour-able yet.
  14. It's in the process of the jelly state to liquid state that it turns yellowish. I am using the soft plastic mix (no hardener). I flip the plastisol mix about 3 turns, making sure the liquid is fully mixed. Although at my first batches i didn't do that, so the plastisol was too mushy. My pours comes out fine though, just the color and some micro bubbles seems the problem.
  15. Hello all, I've been using soft bearsbait plastisol and one I could not get the plastisol to go clear. I pour 6oz of BB plastisol into my pyrex cup, and microwave 4~5times for 20sec after some stirring. When it starts to turn clear, I run 15 seconds During that process the liquid from a smokey clearish (but not clear), starts yellowing lightly. On a new batch i added 3 drops of heat stabilizer, but the results were the same. On another new batch i added 1 drop of black. Results are the same. Could it be the plastisol from bearsbait? (microbubbles are another issue too lol, but for now the clear color is getting on my nerves. lol) Thanks in advance
  16. Thanks guys. Truly and amazing pattern. I really wish i could find lures like that. Maybe i'll try the 12 beers and 3 burns myself someday lol.
  17. Oh, from what i heard Jeff was not pouring worms anymore. I would be definitely buying them.
  18. I did pour into drops, but the the worm breaks appart since there are 3 colors. I can't find this lure anywhere i think it's made by G4, Anyone here can Knock this off? I'll buy it. Need the brown one
  19. I was wondering if anyone can help me figure out how to achieve this look . Thanks in advance http://s249.photobucket.com/user/j79buff/media/100_9870_zps76853416.jpg.html
  20. i just got a sample of the lures today. Very interesting how the legs were nothing close to laid flat as the tube molds. I think Bob was spot on on the 3 or 4 piece mold. And the tentacles did have a natural lie to the rear. . I am in love with this lure. I am going to try to use this vs the GY baby ika which is hard to beat. This lure was definitely injected (3~4 parts). Thanks guys .
  21. these have a conned shape on the tentacles. The action on the tentacles should be totally different...
  22. I came across this lure awhile back. I made a master with sculpey , but I can't figure out how would i make the mold for this. Specially the tentacles. Any ideas? http://www.ebay.com/itm/321206109907
  23. Thanks guys, found my problem lol. I thought i was the only one.
  24. Thanks Skimpy, That was the best senko pouring i've seen so far on youtube.
