Start Making Soft Plastics The Easy Way!...Salt Gator Injection Molding Machine
Testing the Salt Gator soft plastic injection machine to see if it’s the best way to start making soft plastics at home. This DIY lure making review covers everything from injecting plastisol to recycling old lures without a microwave. I walk you through the entire process, including: Unboxing and Assembly: See what comes in the kit, from the molds to the power supply. Heating & Agitation: How the automated system handles plastisol (liquid plastic) transformation without the fumes or the risk of scorching. Injection Testing: We test different hardnesses (0A, 20A, and 40A) and even try recycling old soft plastic lures. Pro-Tips: Why heating your molds is crucial and how to avoid "operator errors" that lead to messy clogs. Whether you are a professional engineer like me or just starting your lure-making journey, I share my honest thoughts on whether this machine belongs on your workbench.
