Pencil Sinker Mold (SEE UPDATE AT BOTTOM)
2 Cavities Each
3/8 oz
1/2 oz
3/4 oz
1 oz
Uses a #7 brass barrel swivel in all 8 cavities.
Important notes:
- Hard cast lead (bullet lead or maybe range lead) may give the best results with this mold for some users. Only you know what is best for you. .
- The space for the swivel is slightly deeper on the right plate to make placing the swivel a little easier.
- The eye of the swivel is formed by an uneven & unflattened twist. It will fit in the mold and takes careful placement, but the mold will close if placed correctly.
- Some brands of #7 swivel exhibited much less consistency than others. You may have to use a little more pressure to close the mold with some brands. The ones sold under the Do-It Molds (tm) brand were the most consistent we tested. This could change over time.
UPDATE: May 3rd 2025
This mold was made in cooperation with a customer. That customer wanted the following.
- All castings the same length. It does that.
- All castings use the same size swivel. It does that.
- All castings STRAIGHT cylinder. It does that.
- Hard cast lead (bullet lead) is probably the best alloy for this application.
This was added due to the complaint of one customer. Pictures of the castings as they come out of the mold are in the listings. LOOK AT THE PICTURES. If you do not like the way they are don't buy it. I have no issue if you do not buy something that isn't what you want, but don't buy it and then try to bully me into changing it because it's not really what you want. THE PICTURES OF THE WAY IT IS ARE IN THE LISTING. LOOK AT THEM.
