stopped last night to do this as I had to take a break. lol was working on a couple of large orders and dipped over eyes for 15 hours and needed to do something else. Yea to take a break I still make plastics. lol Guess that means I am hooked
I do mine both ways, or should I say 2 different ways. For production I use the twin injector but for special order or some of the stuff that goes in my box I hand pour then inject. because all my grubs get dipped after I dont heat my molds as cold cracks is not an issue but I have found by holding pressure on the injector it helps with the bond. For my hand pour/inject like on the small fry I tilt the mold up if I want to get a throat color other wise it end up as a belly color on the bait. I tilt it one way and pour the throat then turn the mol and do the other half of the grubs. While I am doing that I have my back color heating up. Then I lay the mold flat and pout the back. When doing both half's of the mold make sure you dont over fill or you wont have room for the plastic to go when you inject it. once the back is done I close them up and inject the body color. Not as fast as the twin injector but once you get going you can reheat once while working with another and it can go fairly quick.

Hey Keith,
My hat is off to you brother. Most folks start selling and they clam up on there ideas. You are doing just the opposite. The more you learn the more you share. I do not pour and I can't wait to see what you have come up with again. Thanks for all you give to us and I believe it does go around!

Keith, you never fail to amaze with your plastics.Thumbs Up Thanks for sharing what you do with all the pourers onboard. I'm sure youve saved them alot of trials and tribulations in their processes, especially with the guys new in the pouring game. And as always....those are some great baits!Thumbs Up
Keith,
Are you using a syringe to put the plastic in the top and bottom of the mold or another method?
Thanks,
Scott
