Those look great. Do a anyone know if you can buy soft plastic chunks? I don’t have many old lures and the colour combination won’t be good if I blend them All together
I did not show how I do senkos but you can make them fully rounded without flat sides. To do this, fill your container with silicon without the worms in the cast. Rather push the senkos into the silicon until they are fully surrounded. After it cures, cut the worm out with a blade and you will get a mold that encapsulates the whole worm. To pour just pinch the flaps of the mold open and pour into the cavity.
In simple terms, no it should work without using water. However, the soap and water allow you to form the silicon around the baits without it sticking to your hands. This type of silicon is relatively thick, so when applied directly to the mold it may not cover the baits, therefore leaving holes and imperfections.
Ace lil video bro 👍💯

Cool. How durable? Do you still make molds this way?
Since the molds are open pour, are the senkos flat on one side?

Would the molds not cure out completely if you just poured the silicon directly on the baits without putting it in water?

Doesn’t work don’t waste your time or money unless you want some disappointment and a lot of caulk on your hands
