  1. How do you present this Beaver bait? Football jig?
  2. quite a bit written on this subject in the Do-it forum page. Go to 'search' then type in your question.
  3. You might check this. http://store.do-itmolds.com/15-Thump-Grub-5-cavity-_p_1129.html
  4. All paddle tail action is dependent upon the plastic used. I use hard and it works fine. It does need special care in that it takes so little plastic for each hole you can't just stop the flow and move over. Have not tried dual injection yet but I have a little 2 oz. injector for this mold and that's the way to go, for me anyway. It has such a great profile it really is worth the effort. a
  5. I have the Bass Tackle mold I would put a few in an envelope tomorrow if you pm your address.
  6. Consider this is a hobby. Most injectors will only hold 4 oz. or less. Which is why the recipes are usually in 4 oz. increments. If I was in your position I would go directly to the supplier with your question.
  7. Take 10 of the baits you want to make. Get gram weight divide by 10. Move grams to ounces. Now you know the plastic weight of 1 bait. Translate ounces in a gallon and you have your answer!
  8. Check ebay. Quite a few pourers using "Senko like!" for their worms. Also see where you might 'fit' with the prices.
  9. So here we are I have only heated, in microwave 1 quart increments and it only takes a minute or so to de-gass 1 qt. I can have 2 qt. pots, the most I have ever done in less than 5 minutes ready to pour. It seems as if a 2 gallon pot would work for me. What do you think?
  10. How long does it take to de-gass a gallon of plastic in a 5 gal. pot with 6cfm vac?
  11. Does this mean you would need a 5 gal to do 1 gal of plastic? Looks like you just answered question. Thanks a bunch Leonard!
  12. I just took delivery of the Ultra Mini Star system. Max is 3 qts. each pot. 11/2 gal. total. Any reason I shouldn't get the 2 gal. with 3cfm vac?
  13. "Best 250.00 anyone in the bait business could ever spend IMO.. " Is the cost of the compressor about 50%?. I ask because from the recommended company site prices seem to be around $125.
  14. I have purchased the degassed plastic from you. A couple of gallons have not been opened and a little over a year old. Any problems? Guessing the gasses come from the manufacturing process and once cleaned up, stays clean.
  15. Where does one get one of these? I am not in the business, yet(?), but do make baits.
  16. Like Willie Nelson said after he bought a golf course. It's mine and par is whatever I say it is. We can make the baits anyway we want. DaveMc1 I just ordered 4 packages of your tube (hardly think there is a 'ton of salt' 2,000 lbs.?) When I get to the bass lake this fall I will compare the performance with my non-salt, but richly scented tubes and see what happens. A 'throw down' if you will!
  17. From another forum. By a person that makes and sells soft plastic baits. "About the only thing I add salt to is senko's and that's at the ratio of 2 TBS per 4 ozs of medium ESS."

    Thank you. That is exactly what I was after.
  19. Anyone use one of these successfully?
  20. SRJ

    Griddle?

    I have used an induction plate with cast iron pots. Heat plastic in microwave and temps will be maintain in pot. Just need to stir every now and then.
  21. Only one way to find out and that is to use it! Paddle tails are 'the rage' now and used by many, successfully.
  22. Just received the Mini system 7/5/17 ordered 6/5/17. Both Chris and Rupert have been a treat to work with. A number of people whos knowledge of this subject I respect recommended this machine. I have about 30 molds I want to do two sometimes 3 colors with and once done may not need it for a month or more! I have no personal knowledge of the Jacobs machine but do like his molds, both jigs and plastic. Seems they are more for the commercial application where there are a great deal of product in one mold and need the pressure of a machine to move the plastic.
  23. I have 2 of the aluminum ribbed swimbaits with 2 more on order. Response concerning last order: "Your order is fished and poisoned. I think very soon you will get it. Thank you!" 5 Stars
  24. You are correct the company is in the Ukraine. I have purchased a number of aluminum molds without issue. Prices low shipping high!
  25. Check cuz Rupert at Ultra. I have this mold and love it! http://ultramolds.com/product/sweet-craw-2/
