Very clean nice work, but you painted them by brush right? or your a master at powder coating ;)

Very cool. Just grabbed a tube weight lead mold myself. Waiting for a weekend with decent weather to pour it.

I've got a ton of Do-It lead molds and have poured my own baits for years.  As DobynsTriton's baits are proof you can make excellent baits at home for a fraction of the cost compared to tackle shops. Have always wondered why more people don't pour their own. Those are some great looking baits! If I were a bass I'd eat it. LOL

I'll bet I have looked at this thread twenty times today and every time I thought...."those Do-It molds sure make it easy to make professional looking jigs".

I've used Do_it lead molds exclusively for over forty years. Others make molds, but Do-It products simply make things easy for even the novice. The mold halves seperate nicely after the casting is poured. They make a clean casting. Now factor in the full service type of company we have to deal with and its just one great big plus.
