Reply With QuoteI drilled my old jacobs molds also. I always clamp the mold in a drill press and use a 5/8 metal cutting bit. Give it a squirt of WD 40, go slow and be sure not to go TOO FAR!

do you have old Jacob molds here is a trick to make the whole bigger
we are talking about the injector whole the first picture you will see before I made it bigger with the inset tool the second picture you will see the inset tool that I used in this one is made for metal or wood either one I'm sure that you guys have been wanting to make a bigger opening for a long time and a lot of his molds of course Rick now makes the porthole a lot bigger but this will give you guys a chance to make the porthole bigger for yourself.

Awesome idea! I wish we would make bigger runners as well
In our government-controlled schools we are taught that Lincoln was our greatest president because his war ended slavery and saved the Union. As usual, the other side of the story – the side that reflects poorly on the government – somehow gets lost. – Richard J. Maybury, The Abe Lincoln Hoax
