I've been wanting to design and make my own swim baits and jigs for a long time now. Being an old Special Effects artist - sculpting, molding and casting come second nature to me. Thanks for the awesome video 👊🏻

*Found this through a TH-cam video **enjoyable.fishing** recommend does exactly what its meant to do. Very durable and no hang-ups at all surprisingly*

[@andrewsparks5035]

This was exactly what I was searching for. I've got a few baits I've carved I would like to make two piece molds out of. Super easy to follow along, definitely saving this for reference

[@pawpaw5717]

Excellent tutorial and appreciated the easy-to-follow guidance. Thank you!

[@johnbell5612]

That's absolutely amazing. I've been trying to find a way to make soft plastic crab lures but it's been a nightmare with silicone.

[@JustinTyme1966]

Its metal cast. Im a mold maker by trade(28 years) and have worked with this material extensively. I know that it will break down quickly due to the high heat needed to melt the plastic. This is for the hobbyist not big lure productions. The life of the mold will be short before it starts to chip out and crack.

[@swaymedz]

Can you pour that resin into your already existing “aluminum mold” in order to make your master blanks to produce a multi cavity mold?

[@eagleeye9549]

Very nice, I wonder what the action would be on a hookbwith no weight...

[@10-4tackle2]

Do the baits come out shiny?

[@sinarsumchannel3816]

Great friends

[@christinoccs]

Its AWESOME, AMAZING the realistic fish movements if you dont show the process, I should not know it was a rubber fish

Thus to far to call....can you share the name.of the soft.plastic you use....I intend to ed print my mold but dont know war to cast into it..thx

[@Legion_Dawn595]

I know this is an old video but was just wondering if a factory (store purchased) swimbait could be used as the master blank instead of clay

[@karlstokes874]

Yes it can be used

[@socalsaltwateranglers]

Yes but then you fall into what's called "RECASTING."

[@GaryKeyFishing]

What silicone did you use specifically? The pink stuff? Would like to purchase some but wasn't sure what you used there.

[@MakeLure]

This is our High Strength 2 silicone - you can purchase at alumilite.com

[@GaryKeyFishing]

@@MakeLure Awesome, thank you! And then I can order Alumilite White to make the prototype originals by pouring it into the silicone mold and continue to make master copies.

[@CaptActon]

Great mold, is the vac50 able to have resin poured in for hard baits?

[@MakeLure]

Hi Jon, thanks for watching! No, this is only to be used with Alumisol soft plastic.

Quick question why do you make a gate at the tail of the lure??

[@brysonplato5552]

It allows any air bubbles to escape.
