That is really cool! You're like a mad scientist putting the aluminum dust into the resin. Very nice work and the name engraved is sweet. If I find one on on the beach, I'll be sanding off your signature and dropping it in my plug bag.

Way cool. I have a plug in mind to try that with some day. Is it difficult to mold large lead weights in to a plug dead center?

Larry Dalberg (The Hunt for Big fish tv show) Did a show on making plastic lures from molds 2 weeks ago. Search the hunt for big fish website and hes sells all the plastic stuff to make lures. He may have it on DVD to purchase.

Brilliant! This is giving me ideas


That episode of dahlberg was pretty good. I havent been able to find it anywhere online, but he was doing some pretty cool stuff, with the clear resins and the rtv molds and stuff.

I missed the show but several people who saw it said it is similar to what I am doing. I have used that stuff and there are others as well.
