I picked Dougs brain for a couple months about a year or so ago. He told me pretty much everything I know about this and shortened the learning curve on it for me immensely. I only dabbled with it for a real short time but it was really neat what you could do with the stuff. If I ever get some more time to play with it again I would really like to get into it a bit more. For now I had to put it on the backburner. Cost is high and waste is big when your figuring things out and trying to get into it. Your molds are THE most important part. I did make a bunch of needles. I weighted a few and went with straight resin on a bunch of others. I gave them all away exept for one I have and it was one of the bad pours. I poured mine on a rod that I removed immediately after the bait hardened to get my through hole. Everything was done and ready to prime out of the mold. Thanks Doug for everything and I'm sure I will try this again soon. It's crazy if you think about the possibilities. Your stuff is off the charts. Woody here are the needles I made.
