Tacklemaking I jumped into the deep end

Decided to take my tacklemaking to a whole new level and bought a spincast machine. For those who do not know what it is I have a pic below of a spincast mold. Basically it spins around and lead is forced into the cavities. I can go from hand pouring 50 lead baits an hour to hundreds.

That's awesome, I've never seen it, only heard of the process a couple times.

From a hobby to a business, good luck!

There is a company that makes spincast molds for soft plastics - I wonder if they would work on the same turntable setup you've got.

It would depend on how slow of RPM I can spin. I would think soft plastics would have trouble with salt and flake.
