    I cast my sinkers utilizing spent brass ammo casings.
    They look cool , stack easily into the tackle box compartments and do not snag up as much compared to teardrop-shaped sinkers.
    I'd insert a stainless steel wire form all the way to the bottom with an eyelet protruding and fill up the casing with molten lead, cutting off the excess lead overflow after cooling.
    I use rifle casings cal. .308 and cal. 30-06 for stillwater fishing in lakes and ponds(approx. 35 and 45 grams respectively) and pistol casings like 9mm , .38 or .357 mag for smaller sinkers or for dropshot fishing.
    On these cylindrical pistol casings I'd bend the rim slightly inward prior to casting in order to prevent the lead plug to slide out of the casing.
    Heavier disc sinkers for river currents I'd cast into the aluminum casings of tea warmer candles.
    I'd pull out the wax(or use a burnt up one and scrape off all wax remainders)and poke a U-shape wire form through the outer wall, bending a small radius to either end at the inside.
    A wooden laundry peg and/or some aluminum tape holds the wire form in place whilst pouring in molten lead on a plane , heat-resistant surface.
    One can fill up the candle casings to 1/3 , 1/2 or full to the brim to get different weights.

    The reason the ones with the swivels messed up is because the swivels will actually float on molten lead. You could try using something like a paper clip to keep the swivel under the molten lead until it sets.

    If you use clear packing tape on the inside of the mold the wood mold will pull off better, but your way does work. I made a mold for a 1/4" X 7" long in a block of wood split in half and I use a clamp so i can pour melted lead into it. I get wheel weights pretty regularly. Great job

    I make sinker rods from 3/16” brass round stock. Cut to the desired length, drill a small hole in the end and thread a key ring onto it. Attach the swivel and tie on the fishing filament line normally. Brass is better than lead and safe for the environment! Honestly by the time of buying all that equipment he’s shown, my way is so much cheaper.

    • @FishinNStuff

      So brass is cheaper than lead 🤔 you can melt lead with a camp fire . You can't drill brass one though . To each his own but your drill cost as much as a lead pot lol and your brass is 6 times as much . But it is better for the environment I guess

    Watching you make sinkers reminded me when I was a little boy watching my dad make em. But, he made his with a spoon. Not sure what size cause I was a little boy and everything looked big to a kid. Ok, getting to the point. After the lead was melted on the stove he use a “big” spoon to dip the lead out and hold it for a few seconds to harden and he had a spoon weight. Don’t remember how the hole was made but heck that was 65 years ago. Maybe a nail or an egg beater drill and bit.
