Hey OTIS, I did some searching for you and I found a great site for you that has everything tou need to make anything you need. It has the molds to make jig heads, weedless jig heads, lures, sinkers, and special purpose. It even has all the accessories to make the lures as well: hooks, weed guards, wire forms, and a lot more....Let me know what you think and how you like it.Hope this helps anyone looking for these itemsHookemandCookem
Thanks. I've done a little research and found a couple sites with the essential supplies. I'm thinking that I'll need a melting pot, a mold or two, hooks, paint, bucktails/flashabou, thread, brushes, and sealer/cement. Any input on the following research would be appreciated.Melting Pot:I'm kinda leaning towards the Lee Production Pot IV.Molds:I'm thinking of starting out with a walleye and a round jig head mold.Hooks:They are cheaper by the 1000 pack, but I'll have to research what sizes to start out with.Paint:I like the powder paint but I'm not sure how easy that is to use, or if I'll need to purchase the paint bath applicator to use it successfully. Vinyl paint would be my other option, but I'm not sure what direction to start out in yet.Head Cement:I know that I need it, but I'm not sure what kind to get.Am I missing anything?
Do-it corp is also a good place to buy just about anything you would or will need. www.do-itmolds.comI have ordered from their cataloge many times.
