Nice job H2O!! Have you tried them in the water yet? I am curious how handle a little chop when the wind picks up. Made a bunch of silosocks last summer and really enjoyed that even though it was a lot of work and many more hours than I had expected it to be. I never have tried making foam decoys. Looks like fun!!!

Very interesting. Are you using an aluminum mold and pouring plastic? Just currious as there are many ways to make them as I have learned.

What you see I made out of clay and bond. Then making mold out of silicone. Then I pour plastic in the mold first and make sure there is enough to make the bill solid plastic then use 2 part foam

Nice looking mold. In the future though (if you hope to sell dekes) I would use something other than the toilet to display your wares.

Lol I will

just showing what I've been up to. When I'm ready to sell I will post stuff in the classified section.

Some people classify divers as s**t ducks, so it may be fitting to display them on toilet stands.

That looked like a piece of TREX for the Keel...

Correct. Good weight to it. I was going to use the brown like most will do, but they were clearancing the grey at $8.00 a board. Many of the foamer builders are now using the TREX decking for keels. Same deal that Blue Collar Decoys is doing.

I'm using the same thing too. Great weight to it and lasts way longer than wood
