I could use some info on the Teflon rod that was mentioned.What temp will it tolerate?Sounds like it could be used as a dipping rod for tube lure making.A person would not have to lub the rod,but then maybe the plastic wouldn't stick to the rod long enough to cool in shape.Food for thought!

I'm not sure what the temp range is on the teflon rod, but it is pretty high. The only way I have been able to destroy one is I accidentally left it in the jig and ran it back to the flame to flow the powder paint, it was toast then. I use them in the spin casting mold where a metal pin would be used in a Do-It mold. They last forever. I am not sure but do think the properties of the stuff is listed on the McMaster page with the rod. Go to www.mcmaster.com and type in the search box - 'PTFE TEFLON' and it will take you to the pages with the rod, it comes in all different shapes.

No I am not related to Dave. He used to post on here quite often, but have not seen him visiting recently. He contributed alot to this forum, I too learned much from his posts. I would be honored to meet the man. Glad I was able to help you, good luck with your idea, I think it will work.

As for super glue gel, try the Loctite Brand of Gel super glue, also available at Wal Mart.....it's a silvery color plastic bottle with two ridged blue sections on the sides for squeezing. I've had a bottle on the bench for sometime, doesn't dry out like others....still good after 6 months or so.
