Made my own Ned Rig head mold (vulcanized)

they have whole line of castaldo mold making supplies.

Wonder where I can get a bigger frame than the standard 2 x 3 inches?  Thinking of making one using square aluminum tubing 2 x2 inches ... Also I have t-shirt press which supplies heat and pressure, not sure how well that would work.

Great video Mad Moose.

Actually didn't see yours! I had found a couple of videos where the guy makes pendants and went from there. 

Did find your post via search just now. Nifty jigs!

Great topic and video !   Instead of cutting a sprue afterwards a worm weight works great for a sprue shape . Drill a small hole in the master  jig  head just big enough for a short piece of spinnerbait arm wire . Put the wire in the hole you drilled and slide the worm weight onto the wire up against the master . Check alignment to make sure it's straight for a clean parting line .

Awesome suggestion! I have started making cones from polymer clay but this is even easier.

I do something similar. I use the sprue from some of my Do-it Molds.
