It’s a mold from Print a Lure on FB. Look him up. Not on FB anymore or I’d provide the link. Good think about it is if you need to down size just bite the tip of the body off.
Those colors are awesome
Where did you order the powder from? Love to try some. Hate your not on Facebook anymore

Pardon my ignorance, but it seems ( to me ), your doubling your cost with two molds having the tail mold and what I'm expecting a full mold to place the tails in to attach the bodies to?? wouldn't it be easier to shoot the whole thing in one color then cut off where you want the body to attach, or am I missing something here?? I am just getting started myself so if you could enlighten me, it would be great. Thank you

Personally I hate reheats and over time they build up quickly. Using a tail mold cuts down on reheats. With the tail mold I have I can shoot 24 tails with just a sprue leftover. To shoot 24 tails with the 12 count body/tail mold I have I would have 24 bodies and 2 sprues leftover as reheats. This adds up. Back in the day when I poured a lot I’d have several tail molds and would do tail runs meaning I would stock up on several tail colors I use so I could quickly grab tails when needed and shoot a body on. Makes it easier. Another thing it is easier and more uniform to pull a tail off a sprue than to cut off a body.

Ok, Thank you for the reply...I'm Just getting Started and was looking at start-up costs. Might be something to look at down the road, for me anyway, as money would allow. I don't plan on going into business, just make for myself. Having back problems as I do, and unable to maintain a source of income, ( I'm on VA disability and Soc. Sec. Disability ), I have time on my hands a lot, and this would help with the boredom.
That's one reason I got started tying jigs. Yes I know how expensive it can get, but if I keep a level head I think I can keep that under control...Thank you again for your reply.
You’re welcome. When I 1st started I didn’t have tail molds. Once I bit the bullet and bought one I can’t imagine not having a tail mold now and stay away from any mold that doesn’t have a tail mold.
