Me and my bass buddies usually fish with weedless 1/2 or 3/8 jigs. Most of the molds i see for sale are of the variety, usually only have one of these sizes in the mold.  Where can i pick up a mold that well pour several or more of one size?

Go to Bass Pro Shop they sell alot of different one and I think Cabelas as well!

Ive tried bass pro and cabelas, but they have the molds with a varity of sizes. Im looking for mold that just pours 3/8 weedless jigs. And another one for1/2 jigs.  Thanks for the reply..

Do It molds will sell you a blank but won't make it for you. You'll have to take it to a machine shop with your specifications which is very expensive unless you know somebody who is willing to do it for you. Do-It does have production mold with up to 7 cavities of one size but styles are limited. Check Barlows for what you are looking for.

Ditto on Gotstafish....what he said  ~shade

Check out Do-It.....they do "production molds"  on some of their popular sizes....multiple cavities of the same head.....worth looking into..you may get lucky

otherwise....machine shop.

really, if you set up a good process, you would be surprised at how many heads you can produce from a single cavity....  8)

It is all about the process, and minimizing wasted movement.

Here's another great source for custom molds, they're more expensive than Do-it, but you can get anything you want!  ;)

Nice stuff, looks like they would last longer than Do-It molds to justify the price.

Might check at Jann's Netcraft they are on the web.
Normally if you have a machine shop make them you will pay out the rear for them.
