    I have a doit mold that has swivels on both ends of the sinker. Is this just as good ?

    You'll get a better bond between the lead and brass with an eye with less heat than with a swivel.

    I think what Tman53 has is called Trolling sinker, it's made to use swivels. I have the Inline Trolling Sinker, it's made to use eyes.

    To insure that the swivel doesn't pull out you could form light wire with a board and 2 brads that would hook into both swivels. Finished wire would look like a spent staple.
