    Bullet jig mold modification

    I’m looking to modify my mold to add a screw lock bait keeper. Has anyone done this? And can tell me the easiest way to do it

    I am having difficulty picturing how this is going to work. Can you explain in more detail?

    Instead of adding to the mold, I've just tied on a screw lock, then super glued in place. Its worked okay.

    I think you are asking about a jig setup like oldhams??

    It's a lot easier to add the
    WDB1000 Wire Keeper
    ... Easier to rig as well. https://www.barlowstackle.com/WDB100...per-P3764.aspx

    What modification must be made to the bullet mold to use this keeper?

    With the hook in place, Lay the keeper in the mold where you want it, Then close the mold.... Clamp mold closed or tap with a hammer. The witness marks should be shown on both sides of the mold. Use a dremel tool to remove small amounts of the mold until it closes completely.
