My first order was a pint of med plastic, 2oz bottle of scent (which will last a while, im still on the same bottle)  3 2oz bottles of color, some blue fleck, and a mold.  It was about 40$, then I went to the local walmart picked up a hotplate and some metal measuring cups, Ive sense started using pyrex glass cups.  In retrospect I think I would have gone with a better mold to start with as I havent used any other molds sense I got my new one. At first it seems a little overwhelming but after you give it a try a few times it will only get easier.  Ive literally made 100's of baits, this year, an bought next to none (only jig trailers I think).Oh and if fumes are the problem avoid calhoun plastic, Ive only used it and lurecraft plastic, but the calhoun stuff gives off some wicked fumes.</blockquote>
