  1. Although we only make silicone spin casting molds you may be interested in one of our start up programs.

  2. Pete,

    We use a mix that has a 2% tin and 6% antimony. The tin is for fluidity and the antimony for hardness. We use silicone rubber molds so our baits have a satin finish if used in a aluminum do-it type mold they will be shinny.

    We do not have a web site. Most all the work we do is custom. We do offer a variety of options for manufacturing lead or tin products. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

  3. Pete,

    If all your wanting is a harder bait and one that is shiny, you can use a lead that has a higher antimony and tin content. The draw back is that the sprue is harder to break of cleanly.

  4. Pop,

    A 637 Form is for Federal Excise Tax.

    You can go to www.irs.gov and request form 637

    There are a number of post here in the Docks with the title of, Federal Excise Tax on Fishing Tackle.

    If I can be of any help please feel free to contact me.

  5. This is the paragraph under Manufactures Taxes Part II in the 720 Forms and instructions booklet.

    "Sport fishing equipment (IRS No.41). The tax on sport fishing equipment is 10% (.10) of the sales price. The tax is paid by the manufacture, producer, or importer. Taxable articles include fishing rods and poles (and component parts), reels, fly fishing lines (and other lines not over 130 pounds test), fishing spears, spear guns, spear tips, terminal tackle, fishing supplies and accessories, and any parts or accessories sold on or in connection with these articles. See Pub. 510 for a complete list of taxable articles. Add the tax on each sale during the quarter and enter the total on the line for IRS No. 41."

    Mags,

    After you receive your Letter of Registration an IRS auditor will make a visit to help you out if you have any questions.

  6. OK here goes,

    In a perfect world every one involved has a Form 637 letter of registration.

    The Manufacture sells tax free to Mr. Smith and he paints them and turns around and sells them to Mr. Jones tax free, who then hangs blades and skirts on them and puts them up for sale, it is Mr. Jones who is liable for paying the 10% tax. (On his sale price.) In the tax Quarter the baits were sold.

    In this case Mr. Jones doesn't have a 637.

    The Manufacture sells tax free to Mr. Smith and he paints them and turns around and sells them to Mr. Jones, who then hangs blades and skirts on them and puts them up for sale, it is Mr. Smith who is liable for paying the 10% tax. (On his sale price.) Because he has a form 637 and has a tax liability.

    Mr. Jones still has a excise tax liability for the difference in what he bought them for, and his sale price. Because he further manufactured on the baits.

    I would suggest talking to an accountant or the IRS, I'm not a tax professional.

    I hope this didn't make more confusion,

  7. A tax answer in a nutshell?

    I don't know the answer to your question, that would be better directed to an accountant.

    I can tell you that as a manufacturer we are required to pay Federal Excise Tax on our sales of products that we manufacture. This is why we add the 10% tax on to the invoice. Unless the company that we are making product for has an approved and current Form 637 on file in our office. This Letter Of Registration allows for purchasing articles tax-free and you are required to give your supplier a certificate specifying that your purchase are for further manufacture. The tax will then be paid each quarter by the company or persons that hold the registration.

    I don't remember if there is a fee for registration, it's just an application to submit to get the registration.

    I hope this has been some help.

  8. Chuy,

    We can build you a custom spin casting mold and do your casting and painting for you. If you decide to go that route.

    As LedHed has stated "You will save time/money in the long run."

    Customers that have been using Do-it type molds find that we can produce there baits at a lesser cost and faster then they can.

    We have a few good post about our work on the Wire Baits page plus we are a Tackleunderground Sponsor.

  9. walleye4,

    We can build your prototype baits for you to try before we build your custom molds. However the molds that we make are silicone rubber and made for spin casting.

    Most customers that have been using Do-it type molds find that with the low cost of us making there custom molds and doing there manufacturing here that we can make product cheaper then doing it themselves.

    If you would like more info please feel free to contact me.
