In this video I show how to design a master mold box for making custom swimbait jig heads for fishing soft plastic lures. (FYI - If you're not interested in learning CAD design this video will be boring for you.) This is Part 1 where I cover only the CAD work involved in designing the Master Mold Box... Part 2 will cover making the mold and pouring the actual lead jig heads. (Part 2 should be uploaded on Dec. 8th.)

I found your channel through Elliott. Both you guys are doing some awesome stuff!

@TheNeverendingProjectsList 3 года назад

Awesome... Thanks, I love his stuff and I think we learn a lot of good techniques from each other.

Ok.gracias por contestar.solo quería comprarte un molde de cabezas plomada,me a gustado mucho la forma y pensaba que vendías los molde..mucha suerte y gran trabajo

@driver4339 2 года назад

Nice looking heads

@TheNeverendingProjectsList 2 года назад

Thanks...

@gabrielfusaru1211 2 года назад

I would expect to teach me how to design the fish head body too... This issue would complete your great tutorial.

@VinnyBagODoughnuts 3 года назад

Great video! I may have to give it a go :)

@TheNeverendingProjectsList 3 года назад

You should!

@alessandrocoppo401 3 года назад

great!!! you are the best!!!!

@bobmohney5817 10 месяцев назад

Any chance of making a video of how you created the head.

@teddekker3383 3 года назад

Thank you again Steve :-) Ted (Australia)

@TheNeverendingProjectsList 3 года назад

No worries!

@gideonrodgers9634 3 года назад

Great tutorial. Thanks for sharing. One Question: Do you get any air pockets in the lips area since the gate is lower than the top of the head in that area?

@TheNeverendingProjectsList 3 года назад

I didn't on these... the only one I had issues with was the Hellgrammite. The first mold I tried had the mandibles pointed up and those did get trapped air pockets so I flipped the design over, poured from the rear of the hook and it worked a lot better.

@matthewgifford5020 2 года назад

Have you done a video on how you made that particular head? I’m having trouble wrapping my head around how do such irregular shapes.

@TheNeverendingProjectsList 2 года назад

I have not done a full video on that because most of it is done in the Sculpt environment of Fusion 360 and it would probably be pretty boring to watch. I actually don't know to much of most of the functions but maybe I'll do a very short video just explaining some of the basics of what works for me as your not the first to ask about it.

@matthewgifford5020 2 года назад

That is what I figured. I need some more time working in the sculpt environment. Thanks.

@drewbarnabei8477 2 года назад

This is awesome. Do you take any requests? I am looking to have something made

@TheNeverendingProjectsList 2 года назад

Thanks... unfortunately I just don't have the spare time to do any custom work right now sorry.

@davidholmes2665 3 года назад

Hi steve greetings from the UK found your channel by accident,as someone who isn't very computer savy i think what you do is amazing 3d printing is awesome i wouldn't have a clue where to start but i am very interested in lure making in all forms. Is their anyway of buying a set of your mold boxes for you jig heads. I would of course pay postage and costs. Look forward to your reply

@TheNeverendingProjectsList 3 года назад

Sorry I just don't have the time at the moment to make stuff for sale.

@comfortablynumb9342 Год назад

Amazon has a bunch of molds

@reihsir 3 года назад

can you do a slow pitch jig next and what kind of 3d printer is that? thanks!

@TheNeverendingProjectsList 3 года назад

I’m not sure what that’s is but the printers I use are Makergear M2’s

@pnwbasscandy4066 Год назад

With the current molds you sell, for example the ned rig head, can we edit it once you send the file over to add stuff or take away? Make the hook slot bigger for a larger hook?

@TheNeverendingProjectsList Год назад

The files are just STL files... but it is possible to edit "some" STL files in programs like Tinckercad. I have been meaning to update some of the older stuff I've done to be like the molds for the One Ounce Swimbait Jigheads where you should be able to use a variety of different sized hooks. I just haven't found the time and yours is the first request to do so. Are you familiar with CAD already? The NED rig mold is pretty easy to design.

@pnwbasscandy4066 Год назад

@@TheNeverendingProjectsList a family member was going to create the ned for me and after watching your video it does look super simple so I believe I could have him do it. He just has limited time so I’m trying to find a file where we can edit and make our own!

@johnnorris1227 2 года назад

When your are in the design stage is there any way to approximate what the jigs will weigh once poured in lead?

@TheNeverendingProjectsList 2 года назад

Yes... I did cover how to figure this out but I believe it was in PART 2 as I figured it out myself after the fact.

@samehfahmy4040 5 месяцев назад

Hello man , am a big fan of your work, am looking for a stick bait mold from your work, can we work together on at any cost ?

@TheNeverendingProjectsList 5 месяцев назад

Unfortunately I just moved so I don't have my shop back up yet It will probably be a few months until I get back up and running so I can make or test any thing at the moment...
