Triton9 Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 I'll second that! it really is addictive ;D Quote
Super User Munkin Posted December 31, 2007 Super User Posted December 31, 2007 Tin2Win and I did a bit of cooking this weekend, This stuff is addictive. What is that? Looks like a modified cooking pot or something. :-? Allen Quote
StatosDadRI Posted December 31, 2007 Author Posted December 31, 2007 Yup $20.00 Presto pot from wally world on top of a router table. Cooks and keeps the plastic right at 340 degrees. Just working on a mixer for it. Pours just like soft serve ice cream. Quote
Cory20 Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 How many worms is that? How much plastic did it take? Trying to figure how far that stuff goes. Hmm stick kit: around 100$$ Modified pour pot: 20 something $ additional plastisol, 2 piece aluminum molds, hardener, softener, heat stabilizer, color, glitter...hours of satisfaction making and then catching with your very own baits. priceless. Thanks Cory Quote
StatosDadRI Posted December 31, 2007 Author Posted December 31, 2007 That took 20 oz plastic and very little salt almost not a cost factor. We have $100 invested in 2- 2 pc molds. Looking to get some cheaper chunk molds, pica craw and then a finese worm mold. Gallon of plastic cost $28.00 and I'm bettin 500 plus 5" sticks/gal Lots of old plastic to re-melt and will be saving the used ones to repour. That was for 65 - 5" and 25 - 4" we also have a good chunk leftover. Not being able to use last 4oz and drain is sticking up 1/4" in pot. We are reengineering it. Quote
WCCT Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 Looking good. Keep it up. Sometimes I wish I had never started pouring plastic, it is the most addicting thing(besides bass fishing in general) that I have ever done Quote

You using plastisol right? Where are you ordering your plastic from? For me it's like $40 bucks a gallon for plastic at Barlows... Quote

StatosDadRI Posted January 1, 2008 Author Posted January 1, 2008 Del-mart molds. http://www.del-mart.com/forum/gallery/browseimages.php?c=4&userid= Quote
Low_Budget_Hooker Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 These guys are new at the game but they showed me some very nice baits this weekend. All those different colors though,....don't know what all the fuss is there,...no black? : ;D 8-) Keep pourin' guys!! Great job so far! Quote
Super User Tin Posted January 2, 2008 Super User Posted January 2, 2008 They say the EYES are the first to go Look to the right side of the picture RIGHT SIDE is this way >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Quote
StatosDadRI Posted January 2, 2008 Author Posted January 2, 2008 Sorry, last post was from ME, TIN2LOOSE please logout when you leave. Any kids in the RI area come on down to the Providence Boat Show We will be having CastingKids Contest's all 4 days . Quote
Super User Tin Posted January 2, 2008 Super User Posted January 2, 2008 No he is being picky, he wants them without the blue flake. LOL Quote
Low_Budget_Hooker Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 just a jab from the "color is irrelevant" campaign I'll be running this yr Buy lots of black, leave the glitter in the arts & crafts box, and pour em by the hundreds. It's getting closer every day Quote
Cory20 Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 LBH I don't know why I didn't put this together sooner...But wouldn't you be a prime candidate for setting up shop at home? What are your thoughts? Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 looks really good. Nice pot too. Quote
Low_Budget_Hooker Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 My thoughts are that prices make it so that pouring your own, after the time involved and the materials needed, costs about the same. So, to save time AND help promote a guy that still caters to the angler,...I'm going to keep getting my baits from RageTail. Of course, I'm always happy to demo new stuff, I'm sure I'll give these guys baits a throw too, I mean, they were made by my buds, how could I not? Quote
fisherdave Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 *** does have some nice prices and they are close to home thats a big plus too. Quote
Super User Tin Posted January 3, 2008 Super User Posted January 3, 2008 Brent's stuff is great, especially those Beaver Craws Quote
Cory20 Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Sounds good LBH, but just think about all those custom shades of jet black you could be making! Brent has always done right for me and hopefully he'll add some 5 and 4" grubs by spring. Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 yeah pouring is just a tad addictive. Here soon I'll be pouring a ton of baits. Quote
