Hi Bob,
It wouldn't be problem to make the tube bait and other skirted molds with straight dowel pins and you wouldn't have use the nails. The shirts would have to be sliced by hand after injection though and I know that lure craft makes a tool for it. The pins with the grooves to form the tail strands where the pain to make. I've heard from a few customers that they prefer the hand cut tube baits over the molded ones anyways, so I'll work on some new tube bait and skirted molds with straight pins after the holidays.
I appreciate your input and ideas. I don't know why it never occurred to me to go back to the basics and make those molds for hand cut baits.
Thanks again and Merry Christmas!
