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.

[@genesloan3175]

Good one....

[@ColKorn1965]

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

[@jeffjones4006]

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

[@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!

[@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

[@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!

[@AeroGraphica]

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

[@itowmyhome797]

Thank you

[@jameskraus2433]

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

[@chucksmith5002]

Them Sinkers looked Pretty Darn good .

[@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.

[@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!

[@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

[@ryanbortzbluecollarlife]

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

[@abdeslammihamou3686]

excellent thanks

[@guyh.4553]

Now isn't that slick! Cool idea!

[@joebuck66]

Nice build. Gotta love them egg sinkers.

[@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.

[@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.

[@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

[@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

[@mikecha1957]

Very cool Keith

[@andrewenicola5851]

Very nice project sir👍

[@danham3344]

Super cool project!!

[@terryboyd9875]

Excellent project….TKS

[@bhardwaajmohabir9147]

Very nice thank you for showing it on you tube have a good night 🙂

[@johnbush2798]

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

[@blaircox1589]

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

[@BrokefishN]

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

[@jconsolini6286]

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

[@downtownerniebrown3069]

keep them coming buddy ty for sharing

[@jeffjackson5331]

Cool

[@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.

[@pinetree9343]

This video is just what I needed for my next build. Thank you

[@jonaspeoples6931]

AWESOME!!!!!!

[@Tacklefinlures]

That was awesome! 💯 I haven’t laughed this hard for a minute. Keep them coming!

[@timothybrown1849]

That's awesome

[@charlesmcguire3107]

Awesome 👏

[@BigEbobbers76]

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

[@chrisguice139]

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

[@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

[@mrfleming5445]

I’d say that was awesome

[@ermannodibenedetto3064]

Numero uno Mr.Keith....superbravo

[@HooksandHammocks]

Allsome job Keith!

[@thestonesaver6345]

Always good stuff Mr. Keith!

[@kavak1344]

Awesome!👍💥

[@Lotharqp]

Super video, thanks

[@MADMACKERELFISHING]

That was awesome 👏

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you

[@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.

[@victorsalinas7849]

Excellent as always

[@aleenabeel8232]

Love it !!

[@markfletcher5457]

Always great stuff.

[@stevepereira8898]

Another cool video 👍🏻👊🏻

[@CatfishWeekly]

Another AWESOME video Keith!!!

[@Tacklefinlures]

Now we ready!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@daveedwards6567]

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

[@harizismail314]

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

[@briankuhn8997]

I just use my old trusty round ball bullet mold. Got a few many years ago, and all it takes is to drill a hole in th middle after pouring

[@connorhus]

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

[@eldoctorexxl]

Hello from Portugal 🇵🇹. Good work

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you

[@frederikmare9002]

Thanks for the great video 👍👍👍🖐️

[@jaredbradley152]

Awesome video! 1st real comment.. 😆

[@edinelsonramirez5656]

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

[@FishinNStuff]

Try about 45 to 150 dollars a piece

[@andyjohnson675]

Thank you that is the one I’ve been waiting on, you make it look easy lol

[@rickgarcia5201]

👌

[@SirSloop1919]

not that it matters on a diy sinker, but if you heat up the mold more it will form better. The weird edges on the casting are due to low mold temp

[@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.

[@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

[@MrOldclunker]

Great instructional video.

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you Sir

[@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.

[@marlysbownes3817]

If you use a piece of wood on top of the pins to drive them in it will keep them from mushrooming.

[@johnlshilling1446]

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

[@richardordonez8331]

You had me rolling when you missed the pour.

[@FishinNStuff]

Lol

[@GooberTimeGuideService]

Dig it! Well done!

[@whoopiesslingspies4072]

Very nice job on that mold. Super cool!!

[@carolemcconnell4651]

Awesome video

[@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...

[@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”.

[@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

[@George-tz1cv]

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

[@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.

[@turdferguson5300]

Small Harbor Freight drill bits aren't worth a crap for me either. Idk if a punch might drive it out or not. You're a good fabricator so I trust your opinion. I just like watching you build things, I don't need a sinker mold but I'm watching this video. lol

[@FishinNStuff]

I tried driving it out . But since it was like 50 cents worth of aluminum. And I was spending way to much time on it . I just started over lol . I learned that building stuff and watching forged in fire . Sometimes chasing a problem is worse than just starting over

[@joewilliams4156]

Try using non stick cooking spray (PAM) for aluminum cutting. works alot better than cutting fluid.

[@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

[@jons5898]

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

[@kennethsmith8844]

You could go to Barlows tackle, Jan’s Netcraft or Cabelas to buy a mold already made

[@FishinNStuff]

Actually there's alot more places than that if you want to get technical . But I guess those that can do and those that can't go and buy one lol . Honestly some people enjoy making stuff . Why would you watch a DIY if you don't ?

[@mikeedwards2384]

That was awesome as always love the hacks and the lures lol great stuff

[@johnthomas5806]

thanks again

[@scottlytton5328]

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

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you very much

[@MrPanchoak]

Turn up the drilling speed and gently tap drill to depth. Your bits will stay clear and your holes will be more accurate.

[@roberthenson6153]

I might take this route to make moulds for casting heavy lead for my slingshot….I’m running a double band set (1.25” no taper TBG) and it’s HEAVY to draw. 1/2” steel doesn’t absorb enough of the energy of my bands, and the hand slap is terrible as a result.

[@FishinNStuff]

I bet it would work good

[@xaviermercado5639]

🤘

[@independentthinker8930]

Clean the mold with a combustible break cleaner, usually the cheap wal mart brand, scrub with soap and water. It will get the oil out of the aluminum and heat well enough wrinkles the wrinkles go away. Spray graphite will be a great mold release agent.

[@FishinNStuff]

That's good advice

[@FlyingPaintMonkey]

When you are drilling aluminum try turning your drill press as slow as it will go. I’ve always had better luck

[@user-neo71665]

Automatic trans fluid also works really well as a lube for aluminum. Keeps the Al from falling up on the bit.

[@FishinNStuff]

@@user-neo71665 I'll try that

[@FishinNStuff]

I had it running as slow as it would go . But it's a cheap press

[@unluckyeddy7966]

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

[@hilmikimme7805]

First step wram up your mold to get sinker clean

[@SluSharkND]

Great PPE. You didn't mention the cement board athletic cup, but I'm assuming it's use was implied....

[@jimjoyce962]

SluSharkND You speak nearly fluent sarcasm

[@SluSharkND]

@@jimjoyce962 Thank you! Really!

[@grayjohn5676]

Good vid. The only thing I saw was when you make your pour hole drill your small hole first and then drill the larger ones. FYI
