    Lead nail mold

    Looking for a mold to make lead nails for my soft plastics. I see a mold by "Do It" that makes neko weights. Not liking the looks of those from a reliability concern. Looking for a nail type weight that I can insert into the bait.

    Why not just use paneling nails? Brads etc

    I drilled a hole in an unused area in my dropshot mold to make nail weights I have 3 sizes just make sure to get the hole centered when you drill
