DIY Homemade Fishing Gummy Luers-Melt and Mold Kit by FusionX



Demonstration on how to make your own homemade fishing gummy worms right in your kitchen. This kit was made by fusionX fishing lures. The plastic stuff is called plastisol which is a thermoplastic resin used for making soft plastic fishing lures. It can be remelted and poured numerous times with no negative impacts to material properties. It has a melting point of between 320 degrees F and 350 degrees F. It's quite prone and sensitive to overheating and will scorch causing it to turn brownish and then be deemed unusable. Remember these completed lures on not edible. Upon heating the plastisol will begin to turn clear and gel, and then become thin similar to the consistency of syrup. IF the liquid plastisol is not heated to a hot enough temperature and past the gel stage it will stay soft and gummy will not setup properly. Be sure to follow all of the safety precautions such as gloves, safety glasses, apron, long pants, long sleeve shirt, fave shield protective shoes etc.

The plastisol can be melted over a stove however this can quickly lead to overheating.



Molds should be kept dry and clean. You can clean the molds with warm water and mild detergent if needed.
