    Talking 1.5 inch split tail grub aluminum mold


    I received my very first 1.5 inch aluminum mold today. It is a split tail grub. I cannot wait to inject it this weekend. Special thanks go out to our first crappie.com person of the year, Snake River, for all he has personally done to help me learn the basics of soft plastics and helping me graduate from hand pouring molds to actually about to inject one. I appreciate you Bob. I will post a photo of the mold and my first injected baits next week.

    Several pyrex cups
    Aluminum mold
    Metal injector
    Plastics
    Coloring
    Glitter
    Welding gloves
    Face shield or goggles
    Old leather shoes
    Old sweatshirt
    Old jeans
    Old pan to cool baits
    "C" clamps
    Old desk or work tables
    Old radio or cd player
    Shop lighting

    Get the picture........

    Study lots and lots of you tube videos.

    and of course you will be adding you will see ship after you sure that first mold you will get the fever and you'll start collecting molds but one good thing about it it keeps us out of trouble and it something that we enjoy doing don't even think about the money part of it because pretty soon you will have UPS, and daily I could see you now ship studying all those sites with the molds your mouth would be drooling just don't tell your wife anything about when you get ready to order :o
