lead molds


Recommended Posts

I used to use a petrol camping stove and an old small saucepan to make mine. I used to fish a lot of wrecks and rough ground so it was worth making them now I ‘ loose’ a weight every 3rd trip so I just buy them. 
If you make the leads in Portsmouth speak to Andy, he gets petrol for the burner at a good rate🤣

Recently I bought a 6 and 8 oz cannon ball style mould with 50 swivels and 50 loops. £22 on ebay. The mould does the job perfect. I've never bought a single lead, aleays making them because I find it super relaxing and reminds me making keads with my dad when I was a kid.

I was always planning to weld  couple of bolts to the grips, then fix them to the moulds but never got around to it

Are you including the packaging? 

If Pete doesn’t read the small print then that’s not my problem. You will be pleasantly surprised how expensive boxes and parcel tape have become due to Covid and brexit.

Ok but I’m not going to send them to you unless you give me your address in case you try to trick me🤣

I agree it`s bloody annoying when people pay you for things and don`t tell you where to send them, i`ve been caught before.
