  1. The general rule is soft moulds for hard baits and hard moulds for soft baits. I have tried to make a hard bait mould from pop but it was a pain to get the finish bait out in one piece Use RTV and all will be fine Peter
  2. I use forstner bits but I run them in reverse to cut the surface of the timber first then go forward helps reduce tear out. Big-Pete
  3. I bought one of those cheap battery milk frother units looks like the bager thing but with a wire ring on the bottom, I pulled the wire ring off it which left a wire leg, it fits into small openings on some of my paint containers an a quick stir and its all done. BigPete

    Old trick is to use a 22 magnum case cut to length then put a couple of bb's or ball bearings inside and cap the open end with a bit of sheet brass cut to size with a punch. The rim end will require a stepped hole so it will sit flush. Big-Pete
  5. Solarfall, as always your paintwork is excellent, is this type of lure a walk the dog type or something else. Big-Pete
  6. Hi Guys, I recently made one of Hazmails bending tools, they are quiet easy to make and a joy to use so read his tutorial and make his bender. A couple of hours well spent in my opinion Big-Pete
