Lam Plates

[mradamh]

Does anyone have pics of using a 2-color injector to shoot a mold using a Lam plate, then shooting the 2nd time again with a 2-color injector?  Ultimately creating a 4-color bait?  Seems that it might look pretty sweet...probably over kill when it comes to bait making, but it sure would look interesting from a "sales standpoint".  I bet people would love it.  Somebody on here has to be already doing it, so share me a pic please.

Thanks,

I think the time and frustration involved would warrant a price so high that customers would not buy them.
I have injected 3 colors and will only do it for personal use because it is a pain and takes forever.

Customers buy 3 colors all the time in large quantities. Prime example is sexy shad or foxy shad.



On average, 3 color really does not take much more time. I don't charge anything more for a 3 color bait vs a 2 or single color bait.

4 colors might be overboard but also may catch on, depends on the resulting bait and IF it catches fish!

The mold makes a big difference how much effort it is.  If you can hand pour part of the bait, then use a blending block it makes it pretty easy.   This is why we try and put the baits in the mold vertically.  You can hand pour the top and bottom and then use the blending block for 2 colors in the middle.  Or you can do the same with just pouring the belly and injecting the other 2 colors.  It adds a little time, but I don't think it makes it cost prohibitive.

If you were trying to inject 4 colors at once I think that would get pretty tricky and you would have a high error rate.  This would definitely warrant a serious up-charge.

Just my .02
