Well I called Do-it to place an order. They were out of several things which would delay shipping for an unknown amount out of time so I figured I'll try to find it somewhere else so I can get it a little quicker. I'd read several reviews/complaints of very long shipping times from do-it, so I said forget it for now. I was most interested in the Senko mold, the croaker and the regular (not essential series) start up kit. Not saying I won't get it there in the end but does anyone know of a company that might have a good quality start up kit in stock?

Looks awesome Ray! That’s a great match and looks like it came out of a package! Big thanks for all the replies. I’m taking some advice from each of you. I’ll order some mid line molds, a couple less expensive from Ukraine and I went ahead with the higher end (or at least priced) Senko mold because It’s one of my go to baits and I’m picky about them. Didn’t order a ton of colors either. I’m pumped. Can’t wait to get it. Thank you again!

Great tip! That’s what I would have done too! Bought a ton of colors and ending up perfecting none! Lol

I've definitely payed attention to the do's and dont's. especially the ventilation. My shop is 30x50 and was planning to install an exhaust fan anyway to keep the air circulating and keep my rod lockers and stuff dry. Thank you! On a side note, has anyone used the Boog stone molds like these? https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Ultravibe-Speed-Craw-Fishing-Lure-Bait-Mold-Soft-Plastic-83-90-mm/192426284330?hash=item2ccd80152a:m:mg7pKIfp5XixpdcC2dsnVrw I was thinking for the price it may suffice for jig trailers, etc? Maybe not doing it righ but I couldn't find anything searching the forum.

Nope. I fully expect to never save any money with it. I’m just thinking it’ll be a good time and definitely something to do in the winter.

Hey, So I've decided to pull the trigger and start making my own soft plastics. Here's why...... 1. I'm pretty sure I'm going to save thousands of dollars a year making my own. 2. After I get really good at it (you know, 2-3 days) I'm sure I'll be able to mass produce the worlds best soft plastics for bass, therefore I'll sell them and become filthy rich! Since we all know both 1 and 2 are completely FALSE, the real reason is, it just looks like a great time and I really like the idea of catching on something I made myself. This forum is a wealth of information and in looking at some of the pictures you guys post, you guys crank out some amazing looking baits! I was wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction for a starter kit, or if getting the basics separately would be a better choice? At this point the baits I'm most interested in are a 4" Senko, Baby Brush Hog, 10" "powerbait" style worm, the "Midwest Finesse Bait, 2.75", Speed Craw and maybe some type of swim bait. Do you recommend a one-stop shop for all of it, or piece together through various sources? Any Help would be great! Heath
