Fishing Lure Mold - Baby White Bass

https://linktr.ee/blake3dcake

The goal of this project was to create a 3d printed bait mold. The project was successful because the mold worked well and was relatively inexpensive.

Plastisol is extremely easy to work with and can be reheated many times so there is little to no waste. You can literally melt down your old soft plastic lures and make new ones! crazy. I used a microwave and a glass measuring cup to heat up plastisol to 340F. Make sure to stir well and not overheat it.

This specific 3d printing resin likes to be printed warm. Make sure the ambient temp is above 75f. Use an external heat source if necessary. I printed this mold with the tips of the tails facing down, flat against the build plate, with no support.
