I've got an idea for a jig head. Does anyone know of any tool and die shops that would do custom work from the blank aluminum molds?

If you can't find anybody closer to Grandbury, I have a buddy in east Ft Worth that can get you fixed up. He is making 2 molds for me right now.

Will say if REDGUN likes that guys work, that is who I would use! He does excellent work on jig heads! He sent me a few underpin heads and they were super well made!

Skip, that mold came from Jacobs and yes, it is VERY nice and pours a great jighead.
My "guy" ended up being too busy making high $$$ airplane parts to be able to make my little jighead molds.
If anybody knows of an "affordable" machinist, I would like to know about them also.....
