I used these with the Team Catfish weight slides to make a kzbin.infoUgkxdmsDj7fQXe77DC0l7P7ua8B3PiESUubM Carolina rig and they were perfect for the ponds I fish. I have also used them to make 3 way rigs and these work perfectly. Haven't had any issues with them snagging in rocks or in weeds yet.

[@ColKorn1965]

I already have a DIY mold.... it's called my neighbor. He makes lead weights for a living. 😃

[@jimjoyce962]

If you smoke the mold with a candle 🕯the sinkers won't stick, just tap the open mold with something non marring and the sinkers will drop right out. Great video, I've watched them all.

[@jamesbaskins6351]

Thanks for the video

[@jaredbradley152]

2nd that I always soot a mold.. just hold it at a angle a few inches away from the molds, also smoke the inlet, it will make the lead flow way way easier. Best mold release ever. I heat mine with a heat gun

[@michaelmosley254]

I dont make stinkers but I like your videos

[@rider660r]

The way these are made you will have to smoke or dry spray the mold,unless you can/want to make the cavity angle outwards towards each half and they'll then just fall out but most molds smoking or spray is unneeded. Over my 30 some yrs pouring sinkers,jigs,bullets,etc. and my stepfathers 50+ not one of our molds ever needed smoked or sprayed. I do have one newer jig mold though I may use it on to see if it'll help Do-it Wobble Head mold.The way it's designed the outside edges catch as you try and pull it open. I been going to make some custom jig and sinker molds just haven't got around to it yet.I will add handles and a hinge though and make them able to pour 8-10 or 12 at a time depending on size.

[@jaredbradley152]

@@rider660r I smoke my molds for a cleaner pour not a easier release. I like to use different hooks and sometimes the molds will not pour as easy with larger shank hooks.

[@mrhalfstep]

Bravo to you, sir for showin' your mistakes. That how a real Man does it.

[@FishinNStuff]

Lol thank you

[@paulfalcone4115]

Caught you a second time by accident, noticed the drag sinker video first and was pleasantly surprised it was you.Education with entertainment. Keep up the good work and thanks,PS went to the third video.

[@jameskraus2433]

Wax makes a very nice lube for working with aluminum, either drilling or tapping holes and it is cleaner then liquid lubes.

[@ddselvig]

Your mold could have been heated more before pouring so your sinkers would not have so many wrinkles. This was a really great idea for making your own sinker mold. Thanks for the video!

[@whoopiesslingspies4072]

Also adding linotype to the lead or tin. More important on bullet molds of course but having pretty sinkers is nice too!

[@ronaldburleson1099]

If you think Race City is high go to some of the others they charge a minimum. You can't buy just a small piece of metal. Thanks Keith always great.

[@AeroGraphica]

You could also grind a 1/2 inch drill bit to make a round finishing bit .

[@bwcok7947]

TADAY! We get to see him lay some eggs! I mean make some eggs! I mean make some egg sinkers! Gave me a great idea for some snap on sinkers for walleye trolling! Thank you! Stay safe and healthy!

[@FishinNStuff]

Lol

[@terrywebb3340]

Where I fish I need a little heavier sinkers. So i make mine by using a tea candle cup. My weights weigh between 5 & 6 oz.

[@chucksmith5002]

Them Sinkers looked Pretty Darn good .

[@George-tz1cv]

Great idea. I don’t think the fish will care what they look like.

[@machinegunpreacher2469]

@12:54 A stainless steel ladle from the dollar store works well too. I've melted many a pound of lead in it and it's still good to go.

[@blaircox1589]

Awesome 👍 if you have all the gear and equipment already to make'em 😁

[@shoreangler3383]

Yep. This video is AWESOME. :) I stopped short of making my own custom molds for jig heads, because the mold "blanks" were just as expensive as the dang finished molds. Lol NOW? I just learned how to make unlimited mold blanks for super cheap, super fast. 👌 AND, it's gonna be the same/same for plastic bait molds! Sweet! Thank you!

[@myminuteofangle7313]

I like you a lot man...showing the that shit happens when it doesn't work out is priceless. the work that's involved to make a plan come together isn't pees and carets.

[@FishinNStuff]

Sometimes you got to go back to the drawing board lol

[@ryanbortzbluecollarlife]

I’m definitely going to make my own version of this. Thanks for the idea

[@brianr555]

Another awesome video! Thanks Keith! I have been contemplating making my own muzzleloader/buckshot molds…i think you just pushed me over the edge to try it. Of course i will make an egg sinker mold as well!

[@chrisguice139]

I use race city for my welding business. If I get there early enough I like to stop at Stacey's for breakfast.

[@scottlytton5328]

This is a smart channel for sure. Entertaining too, especially that lil green plug, he funny as heck!

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you very much

[@steveroberts80]

You can use two flute high speed end mills for aluminum. Wd-40 is the best thing I’ve used when cutting it. You could also use some sort of saw to put pry slots on the corners in case it sticks

[@jconsolini6286]

Good Job ............ Two Thumbs Up. Tight Line

[@joebuck66]

Nice build. Gotta love them egg sinkers.

[@TimIrvin]

Excellent as always.

[@mikecha1957]

Very cool Keith

[@johnkirven2910]

Keith, try using alcohol when drilling aluminum. It keeps it cool while lubricating the drill bit. I really enjoy watching your videos.

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you and thanks for the tip , I'll try that

[@jeffjones4006]

As a retired guy I love your channel, great ideas that don’t break the bank. Keep it coming great stuff

[@BrokefishN]

John had your video playing before I knew it was up.

[@johnbush2798]

Keith, Another Awesome DIY...just Awesome. Did I mention it was Awesome?

[@donmoroz5502]

You could press them in using a "C" clamp with a large enough throat opening to press the stainless steel rod into the blocks. You may need to use a piece of hollow steel rod over the clamp handle to increase the leverage to turn the screw and press the rod intl the blocks.

[@guyh.4553]

Now isn't that slick! Cool idea!

[@VernonTwins]

Great job. !!! Please tell your wife that I will be ordering a bunch more of the fish-n-stuff black tees. My twin boys wore them to school (6th grade). Now all their friends want one just like Keegan and Camden’s. I’m just say’n. Lol. Mike V.

[@FishinNStuff]

I sent her a screen shot lol . Thank you brother

[@genesloan3175]

Good one....

[@pinetree9343]

[@catfishinwithcrow685]

Keith I have use a few of your DIYs I really like the koosie one to keep my leader ,material in thanks for another great idea

[@markfletcher5457]

Always great stuff.

[@jeffjackson5331]

Cool

[@victorsalinas7849]

Excellent as always

[@jerrymoore6227]

Great job. Thanks

[@GooberTimeOutdoors]

Dig it! Well done!

[@tuloko16]

I make the moulds for my cast net weights using bondo. There are several tutorials on yt on how to make them. And yes, the bondo can withstand the heat of molten lead just fine. Also, if you really want aluminum and dont have the tools and stuff, lee moulds (they sell moulds for casting bullets) can sell you a blank mould with locating pins and handles. All you do is some drilling and shaping your “pattern”.

[@downtownerniebrown3069]

keep them coming buddy ty for sharing

[@ermhicks5915]

Not only is this video entertaining its also.......Awesome! I just pulled and old cast net out of creek some lazy dingus left behind. Not only did I clean their mess up,I got free sinkers! I thought that was pretty dang aw_ _ _ me( fill in the blank) 😅

[@FishinNStuff]

Lmbo , thank you Sir

[@HooksandHammocks]

Allsome job Keith!

[@chrisfultz1528]

Really awesome video, I got to try this one!

[@jonaspeoples6931]

AWESOME!!!!!!

[@daveedwards6567]

Excellent video your sinks look great big thanks nice videos I whach them whenever you up load good job 👍

[@jons5898]

Well jeez that looked EZ, now I’m sorry I bought an egg sinker mold last spring ! 🤔🤣

[@harizismail314]

Exactly what I needed....just as described!!

[@toddmiller3387]

Bought bunch of molds last trip to cabelas that was on sale so got as many as I could afford. Remember to heat your mold before pouring hot lead into. I also put a cake of bees wax in my melting lead never had problems with stinking...

[@CatfishWeekly]

Another AWESOME video Keith!!!

[@andykjohnsonjohnson7622]

Awesome DIY VIDEO 👍👍. I make my line holes, the same diameter a plastic candy stick. Cut a length 3mm longer than the weight, push through the line hole. And mushroom them over, with a lighter. As it helps with the weight running, up & down, without chaffing your line. As that is how most, in-line Carp weight are especially in-line feeder weights. A small half Oz in-lines are awesome, when fishing for trout with doe-bait 🎣😃👍

[@FishinNStuff]

Good idea

[@johnwilliamson4231]

I wish I would have seen this before buying 10lbs of egg sinkers to go to the coast. My bait constantly rolled across the bottom in the current. Lesson learned

[@itowmyhome797]

Thank you

[@aleenabeel8232]

Love it !!

[@jaredbradley152]

Awesome video! 1st real comment.. 😆

[@mrfleming5445]

I’d say that was awesome

[@David_11111]

yay lol I am beginning to warm to your style :)

[@connorhus]

coat the inside of the cavity with candle smoke to make it release more easily.

[@rider660r]

I was going to do mine,when I get around to it,with a drill bit but I forgot about the end mill bits.....making a trip to the garage to dig some out now....lol Those pull pins,if you take a rag/towel and oil it they'll come out of the egg easier. Doesn't matter what oil you use,I just use one of the extra bottles of air tool oil I bought after misplacing 3 others....after 5-6 pours in a Do-it mold I'll run the pin across the towel with the oil. If you could wobble the bit just a hair before you finish boring the cavity it'll let it angle outwards towards the center and the eggs should pretty much just fall out when mold is pulled apart. Might be best to do when press is off and just twist the chuck by hand,shouldn't take much to angle it just a hair. Could also use the end mill bit in the press to make the mold as Do-it does.Will take a lil more time and patience though.

[@luxorbill269]

Wow, makes me want to buy a drill press. I have the same hot pot for melting lead. It is perfect and easy to pour.

[@timothybrown1849]

That's awesome

[@earniederboven5100]

Freaking awesome dude

[@wallaceknifeworkshomestead]

Awesome!! You guys are lucky to have scrap yards that will sell you stuff like that. They wont do that around here.

[@jcdesignsandboat-works8290]

Been away for a while but catchin’ back up! Love the sinker mold brother!!!👊🏻🇺🇸

[@Lotharqp]

Super video, thanks

[@jonathancoley8112]

Great video! 👍🏼

[@TundraMantis]

You can run a burning candle under the inside of your mold so that it coats it in soot. That way the lead doesn't stick. Also your mold is a bit cold, can see by the waves in the lead. Fantastic video! Made me want to go make some molds for myself now.

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you

[@edinelsonramirez5656]

Molds can't be that expensive to just buy! :)

[@FishinNStuff]

Try about 45 to 150 dollars a piece

[@eldoctorexxl]

Hello from Portugal 🇵🇹. Good work

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you

[@bitumenjunkie2435]

G'day mate luv the PPE 😆 your a funny bloke nearly Choked on me beer 🤣 keep up the humour mate it makes your show stand out. No wonder real Aussies and real Yankees get on, we got the same humour 🍻

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you Mate.

[@carolemcconnell4651]

Awesome video

[@MADMACKERELFISHING]

That was awesome 👏

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you

[@devialas]

Great 👍👍

[@jstrunck]

Told ya I was on the way to watch it. Lol John

[@prestonrussell605]

Very informative and entertaining video as always! Really enjoy your videos a lot !

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you

[@frederikmare9002]

Thanks for the great video 👍👍👍🖐️

[@user-neo71665]

If you have a machine shop local you can sometimes buy drops from them.

[@tonygates6651]

As someone who went to school for and has worked in the tool and die trade for a bit a end mill is not ment to be used in a drill chuck so anyone trying this be careful and if it screws up your chuck this is the warning

[@unluckyeddy7966]

considering I have 850LBS of lead in the back of my truck at the moment, I need to start makin' sinkers

[@kt.redacted1401]

Vids have some really good idea's. In fact I have several in progress. Main reason I watch EVERY vid is this man his bird and his bait crack me up. And I like the music. Keep 'em comin'

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you for watching

[@johnlshilling1446]

Make a large and a small set. Mix a large half with a small half, and you'll have a medium size, too...

[@markb.1259]

Very nice project... I think I'd want to make them more than two at a time, so I'd probably go just a bit longer on a mold. Loved the vid!

[@FishinNStuff]

I would too . But it was just a tutorial . Steel might hold the heat better in the mold .

[@markb.1259]

Steel would be much more difficult to carve a sinker shape into.
