Hammer or vise???:D

These were poured from a do-it mold called a Button jig mold.I'm not sure if do-it still makes them.

good to know, now as i recall i thought most of the non ball molds were for larger diameter hooks. So do you end up with much much flashing around the hook shank?
Also Jim, I got the 2/0 mustad jig hooks i bough from you through ebay, thanks.

I do prefer aspirin type heads although im sure i could catch fish on any head.
I made 2 molds last semester that i finally got completely finished so the next time i light up the lead pot ill get to pour some. They are both flat sided heads with a a slightly smaller than normal collar but no barb as i could not figure out how to make them manually.
I learned cnc last semester and finally got a complete program written to make more molds but with small double barbs so when school starts again ill get them made. I may end up trying some tying with these new heads.

Woohoo, CNC! Looks like you're well on your way. Maybe you can apprentice with the master SC, he certainly could use some help.

Nice jigs

Is your sprue gonna allow enough lead flow to pour full heads??? Or do you think you'll need to make it bigger?? Not a CNC person and have never tried except with Plaster of Paris molds, but looking at where the hook is gonna be sitting it looks as though the bend in the top of the hook my impede the flow of lead to fill our your heads. Let us know how it works!!
