    try to get your laminate plate hot both your mold should be at room temperature before you start shooting them but I think with the issue is just that you're putting the laminate plate on in. It is cold try that and see what happens.

    I warm them up before I use them. They are warmer than room temp though. I do this with all my molds esp now when the weather is getting cooler. Maybe too hot? Is that possible? I don’t get it too hot to where I can’t touch them though.

    If you can touch the mold without burning your hand they are okay I believe because of the tale is sold them could be the possibility of why they are curling a little bit I don't know how much could you post a picture I will try to shoot my 1 inch and post a picture to see what you think but I don't have the problem I think that you're talking about. question do they catch fish I know sometimes it's aggravating to figure out the problems will send you a private p.m. wanting to ask you some other questions but not on here.

    add some hardener to your top color, and make sure you let it cool off long enough before taking it out. after removal, hang them up for a day. let gravity straighten some of that out for ya. good luck, brian

    I have had all kinds of the problems. The most recent is the tails curling down when I do the laminate. Has anyone had this problem or know what could possibly be the issue.

    The first issue was after shooting about 10 times something happened and it would not let air out anymore so I was getting resistance when trying to inject. I solved that problem by placing a piece of packing tape on the corners to give it a little extra space. That fish the air problem but now my tails are curling. I don’t think that could be the issue but I don’t know what it could be.

    Any insight would be appreciated.

    Thanks!
