noob questions. Anyone make molds in a kilm?

Recommended Posts

Hi people. I'm new here and have never made a home made bait. After reading a while I am 100% I want to and will do this.

1st question is= how many lures do you get out of a gallon of plastic? On average say 6in worms? Over $30 shipped doesn't seem like a good deal unless it makes alot more than I think it will.

2nd question is has anyone made molds out of clay and cooked in a kilm? If so any suggestions would be appretiated.

My aunt has 2 kilms that she uses for crafts, and I'm a very artistic person who wants to make unique baits.

Hi Jayson,

I haven't made molds out of clay but have used plaster of paris for 10 or so molds with huge sucess. I used PP because of my method of making molds comprises of sticking bits of existing SP's togetehr to make a new form of bait then copying this with the PP.

My only sugestion is as well as a heavy coat of glaze I would recomend some kind of varnish or epoxy finish, who knows the glaze might be enough!

Good luck and I look forward to seeing some of your new creative baits!

Simon
