| I'm going to sound like a Do-it rep. I like them so much. I've been molding jigs and sinkers for about 5 years now, and I'm really impressed with ALL the Do-it molds I've gotten so far! (25) I've used some old molds from companies that are no longer in business, that I got from E-bay. I know why they're gone. Do-it molds are made in small town Denver Iowa, and have extremely close tolerances. The cavities align perfectly and have no "over-bite", and leave virtually NO flash to be trimmed off. The two halves are pinned tightly and don't wobble. They are pinned with roll pins that make oiling easy. They have molds to make Jigs as small as 1/80th.oz.(ball w/or w/o collar,#10 hook) and up to 20oz.(spire point w/ 12/o hook) Also sinkers from 1/32oz.(drop shot finesse) to 5#(cannon ball) You guys on the dark side might be interested in the "Claw sinkers"(2oz.-10oz. w/wire claws);"pyramid" sinkers(1oz.-10oz.);"Storm" that are similar to pyramid(2oz.-6oz.). Boat fishers might like the "Cannon ball"(1/2oz.-5#)or the "In-line trolling"(1/2oz.-16oz.). Molds like "Egg"(1/8oz-16oz.);"Bank"&"Flat bank"(1/8oz.-24oz. & 1/2oz.-12oz.) and "No-snag"(3/8oz.-4oz.) don't require inserts, no need to keep buying eyes. Do-it even has lead melting equipment from Lee and RCBS that is 220volt(its shipped w/o a plug end) See "do-itmolds.com" and "barlowstackle.com"(better prices) I've only had 1 problem w/a mold, that was mostly because of a local retailer, had a new mold in my hands in less than 2 weeks. I've never been disappointed yet. They are a little pricey but I challenge you to find commercially made stuff that looks or works any better than the gear you can make w/ these molds. I can't recommend more highly and can only add PLEASE BE CAREFUL if you get into molding. __________________ A bad day fishing is better than a good day working!
