Mold

I made a mold for the tail weights. The picture is not too clear, crappy camera. I make them in halfs and about 3 inches long so you can cut them to desired lenghts. They are .375 3/8 dia. You just drill the hole and insert the two halfs. It has a thru hole that will accept the .062 welding wire. It works great. I have not yet built a plug but made the mold for that reason a few years back. I am willing to let anyone use the mold if they like. Pour a few hundred and your all set for a few years. I have already poured about 200 halfs. I will bring it to the plugmaking party along with a few others. I would like to maybe make a few more sizes and maybe one for belly weights. I am open to any ideas. Like I said anyone can borrow it if they like. P.M.
