Quick take
Three-cavity casting mold for making flat bank sinkers from 3 to 5 ounces.
This Do-It flat bank sinker mold has three cavities that pour sinkers of 3, 4 and 5 ounces, so one mold covers several weights. It is made of aluminum and is used to pour lead sinkers. Anglers who fish rivers and lakes for catfish and walleye use flat, teardrop-shaped sinkers like these to hold a bait near the bottom and slide it past cover.
