Custom made molds

the last 2 jigs were made in a silicone mold i made. 1/90 oz on a #12 hook and 1/220 oz on a daiichi #20 hook. I dont have any reduced pic to show.
The 48 cavity bead looking mold is for micro sized plastics I made but ive never shot.
Here is another plastics mold but i did not make this one.
I have dabbled in all kinds of molds, the worst are plaster molds, lol.
Here is my master and attempt at a no roll sinker.
Ill post some silicone molds after a while.

Hey "robbor", looks like you're getting real comfortable with the CNC. Do you own one? Lots of demand for custom molds if you're looking for payback.
Those leggy 4-tail plastics are the first I've seen designed for a barb collar jig head that could possibly outfish my(JiggerJohn design) rabbit fur ties.
Thought I knew jig hooks, but what is the black heavy wire in the larger pill head?

Owner hooks maybe...
robbor - Is that plastic craw mold available for purchase? Looks like it has a lot of meat for a barb. How long are they?

Theres not alot of meat, they are designed for 1/32 heads or smaller, basically #10 hooks. I cant tell you the length exactly probably 3/4", small for bluegill and crappy. I took a class in cnc about 2 years ago, I dont have access anymore.
But i dot have stuff to make silicone molds that i made way before cnc. Ill post some pic later.

Wow, pics can be deceiving - the shape of the #2 hook is 32746 but the wire gauge looks heavier like Owner. And, the smaller hooks with the longer appearing straight point legs look Dai-ichi or Gamakatsu.
How does the oversize double barb collar work for you?
With your CNC skills, maybe a custom mold maker could hire you? 6 months lead time means they might need some help.
