Reworked an old mold to accept recessed eyes. This is the end result.

Its just an old herters pop eye jig mold 4G2 . I resurfaced the inside so it would close tighter and then drilled it for a compression fit to install a flat head rivet. Came out better than expected with a perfect recess for eyes. Thats a 1/0 413 hook in it. It will accept 90* or 60* hooks. Roughly 1/4 oz. Thought you might like to know in case you want to make one.

Good job giving new life to an old mold. Looks like a baby hammerhead. Yeah, I know, they are actually born live big enuf to munch a kitten.
