Casting lures in resin is both easy and fun and gives you lots of advantages compared to carving them in wood. While many beginners might think that is big mouthfull, they really should consider it anyway. Once the mould is made, you can cast lots of lures, very easy, and will have a lot more time to focus on other luremaking skills like painting, coating, adjusting and balancing. In this movie I take you through all the aspects of casting you lures in resin.
Materials used:
"Plastic" or correctly Polyurethane Resin

- Please note that there is now two types P4 and P6: The big difference between the two is the "pottime" meaning the time you have to mix and stir, and in the end also the time before you can demold. The P6 gives you a fair amount of time to mix and stir, but also takes almost 1 hour before you can demold. With the P4 you have to be fairly quick (pottime = 4 min. My expeerience more like 2-3 min) but it also lets you demold in about 20 min. So if you are used to resin and want the get some lures casted in short time, go for P4. If you are new to resin, start with P6 and live with the longer production time.
