lol i didnt even realize that was the tutorial i was using. It was greatthanks I really like all the help this site has. And users willing to share ideas and knowledge. thanks again.. Btw do you have a technique you use to get the line through slot on your swimbait. I use a mojo weight and have a 4" version of this bait i wanna make a mold of. I just cant figure out how to make the slot for the weight to go.. Brett

thanks for the help i superglued and it worked great. I made 5 molds yeasterday and the first two were unusable. after I learned your tip i got three useable molds.. I have my hands on a line thru swimbait and cant figure out how to get the hollow area for the mojo to come out in the mold?? any ideas? Also i searched for your tutorial and couldnt find it. I would love to review it.. I made a really nice 5 " sassy shad mold im really liking cant wait to try it out. lol. I can get addicted to pouring my own plastics.. Brett P.s.Thanks again for your help and super quick responses

very cool bait -
awesome work -
Aww that is clever And yeas it is a flat topped bait. The tape i had was about a year old maybe it was weakened over time. So you use a cutout tupperware and pour your plaster on top of cork board with the bait pinned to that? I think I understand that. im gunna go try that. lol I lovethis site so many good people willing to help. Brett

Wow NOVA thanks for such a quick response.. lol u know as soon as I read my own question it dawned on me to try super glue. It works great on my weedguards for jigs. I think if the swimbait would have stayed in place my mold would have came out decent. This is my first post in soft plastic forum.. I am a jig tyer but wanna try to pour my own swimbaits. I really appreciate all the info you guys have posted and shared it has spead up my learning curve greatly.. brett

HI I am having a heck of time keeping my master taped to the tupperware while trying to duplicate a swimbait. It seems to want to come un done up by the head and seems to float up in the wet plaster. MY question is, HOw are you guys anchoring down the master so you can pour your plaster over it. I followed a tutorial to a tee but my first 3 attempts were not that good. lol.. I searched and found 2 sided tape is what most use..It didnt work for me.. SO what am I doing wrong here? Is there anything else I can use or try?? Any help is apprecieated.. Brett

Hi I was just curious to see if anybody else has been getting really horribly wrinkled rubber from living rubber? Over the last month all 4 pounds I purchased from them was unuseable,I finally spoke with Paul there and he said "there was nothing wrong with it and thats the best they had. I cant even find a piece longer than 3" without major twists and wrinkles. I was very amazed at what they considered there best rubber.
