Dink Master Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 First try at pouring two colors at the same time. Hybrid Swirl/Laminates, Black and Red. I will try to post better pictures soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legendary Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Very nice I like the jigs with them interesting. That is very inventive with the pyrex dish how did you seperate the dish like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallie Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Creativity - thats what this site is all about. Good Job Dink Master. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike-A-Pike Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Dink Master, I really like the jigs. Any chance that those will go on to become spinner baits in time?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angler310 Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Dink Master I was woundering if you would elaborate on the devided cup. The baits look excellent. I tried my hand at pouring with 2 cups last weekend. the baits looked good but are difficult when trying to pour two cups at one time. Gotta leave the caffine alone for sure. thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EugeneM Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Those look great I have been wanting to try to pour some swirled baits.Now that I have a little better understanding on how its done I think I will try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nova Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Very neat idea, I like it. My next thought is to swirl the bait; put it on a lazy susan/turntable. You will have to "center" each pour hole so that you are not chasing it around to pour the bait. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastorshane Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Great Idea, I would be interested in knowing how you divided that cup as well! Awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dink Master Posted January 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I used an aluminum sheet for the cup divider. Any better ideas? Please post. The Baits and Jigs look a lot better than the pictures show. I don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bass4cache Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I had the same Idea come to me but I couldnt figure out what type of material to make the divider out of. Can you heat it with the aluminum in a micro? What did you use to seal if off with? I found out that JB weld sticks like no other to pyrex. I made an attempt at a finer pouring spout with JB weld and it doesnt come off the pyrex at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

braveviper Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Hold on to your hats....This thread is gonna be a biggie! I just cut a piece of lexan to make a divider for the pyrex myself...Trying to figure out how to attatch it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBC Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 braveviper, You may want to be careful with the lexan. It melts around 300 degrees. Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EugeneM Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 braveviper let us know how you attached the divider to the cup and how it works out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delw Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 braveviper,You may want to be careful with the lexan. It melts around 300 degrees. Eric and it warps pretty bad at around 200-250 degrees We looked into building molds out of lexan, no go. there are other high temp products out there however, but they are very pricey.

Travis Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I thought I recalled seeing some of these modified cups right after I signed up. I think glass was used as the divider and JB welded in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannabefishing Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 interesting, i wonder how fiberglass being used for the divider would hold up... apparently it doesn't respond to heat until 1700*+.... and the resing itself is used for molds... wish i had the room to give it a go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delw Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Wannabe. you know that fiberglass Idea is a pretty dang good one. it sticks to glass but it can be chipped off also. your local hardware store might sell some thin square sheets of fiber glass, then just take some resin and bond it to the glass. I got plenty here from restoring a boat ( plus there is a fiberglass retail store right across teh street)if I get some time in the near future I will give it a try. I need to get this boat done anyhow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braveviper Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Ah 300 degrees eh? Damn...Guess i should have checked that before all the work.Came out nice too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 The problem with fiberglass resin (I found the hard way) is that as the heat increases it will warp but worse than that it gives off a smell which finds it's way into the plastic. And it's not a good smell. Is it possible to cut tempered glass from a pyrex dish (flat) and glue it inside the pyrex cup? www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dink Master Posted January 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I only worked on this for 1 hour. Posted to get feedback and better Ideas from everyone. (Lazy Susan / turntable - 3 colors 2 dividers) I used 2 cups to melt colors, and divided cup to pour. I did Reheat the divided cup in the microwave with the aluminum installed. It worked, but is it OK??? Divider is held in place by 1 piece of tape. Want to get a more permanent divider that is safe in microwave. JB Weld Wood divider? Keep the ideas coming.

Keep the ideas coming. heating metal in the microwave is fine providing that its not a shiny surface. The shiny surface is the thing that will make the microwave spark like a lightning storm. its an old myth about metal in the microwave and its been busted Myth busters did a piece on this 2 years ago. Anyone that uses a microwave for cooking plastic should try to watch it. it was very interesting. BTW a microwave only cooks via H2o if there is no h2o in the product you are cooking it won't even get hot. Delw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
