Title: Nano
Post by: MicroSpoons on 09/11/12 16:22 UTC: Got my Nano molds in and have been shooting them while working on other baits. Great bait and mold.Shoots real nice. A little tricky to hand pour due to its size but still possible.. first was hand pour belly then inject back,second is twin injector.

Post by: pjmcla on 09/11/12 20:01 UTC: Magnificent work; as are all your baits. 3mm eyes? I have a "thing" against baits smaller than 1.5 Inches; but; the more pictures I see of this 1 Inch bait the weaker I get.

Post by: RonDon on 09/11/12 20:49 UTC: Very slick baits! You make working with those tiny baits look easy! And im with Mr P on this one ... I need to quit looking at these nano pics before its too late!

Post by: MicroSpoons on 09/11/12 22:07 UTC: I sure there a lot of ways to work the mold, twin inject with lam plate, spin injector and twin inject again. dont matter how you do it its a good little bait
Title: Re: Nano
Post by: captian chaos on 09/12/12 05:56 UTC: spin injector ????? or was it a typo
Title: Re: Nano
Post by: ghostbaits on 09/12/12 06:46 UTC: Typo.
Title: Re: Nano
Post by: MicroSpoons on 09/12/12 06:51 UTC: no, not spin while injecting, just to reverse what you did on the first injection with the Lam. plate. gives you a top and bottom color the same with a wide center streak.
Title: Re: Nano
Post by: ghostbaits on 09/12/12 07:56 UTC: Oh, turn/spin the injector the other direction. Got it. I have tried slowly turning the twinjector just to see the results. Unimpressive to me. Does not swirl as some would suspect.

Post by: Jason on 09/12/12 11:07 UTC: I'll wait a week and see if there are any who want to jump in on the Nano contest. Keith has thrown down the gauntlet and set the bar high.

Post by: jl3140 on 09/12/12 11:20 UTC: Jason, if you send me the mold for free I'll get in on this contest LOL! ;D I'm interested to see what everybody who got this mold is going to come up with. There's going to be some awesome ones (I can tell).
Title: Re: Nano

Title: Re: Nano
Post by: Billmo on 09/12/12 13:45 UTC: WOW.. Thats all i can say... I just got my nano mold today and I think im gonna stick with 2 colors with twin injector. that is one small bait.. watch out gills and trout.
Title: Re: Nano
Post by: MicroSpoons on 09/12/12 13:53 UTC: yep it is small, I wont do more than 3 color but most of the time it will be just 2 with the twin injector
Title: Re: Nano
Post by: ghostbaits on 09/12/12 14:06 UTC: Mine shipped today. Scared of how small it is. Never seen a small mold.

Jim
Title: Re: Nano
Post by: MicroSpoons on 09/12/12 14:09 UTC: when you shoot your other molds and have just a little left in the injector, grab about 5 nano molds for those last few drops of plastic. Doesnt take much at all
Title: Re: Nano
Post by: ghostbaits on 09/12/12 14:15 UTC: Is the body about 1/4"? WOW that is a small space to work in! :D

Jim
Title: Re: Nano
Post by: MicroSpoons on 09/12/12 14:16 UTC: body is 3/16
Title: Re: Nano
Post by: Jason on 09/12/12 14:31 UTC: That is super impressive. As Bill said above "Wow". You can't really appreciate these unless you can see how small they are in person.

Keith, if you get a chance you should take a pic next to a penny. I think that will help put in perspective the amount of precision involved in making these like this.

Awesome job.
