Location: E. Tenn | No, but it's probably more cost effective to buy the screw in weights already made.. Do the math... the mold, screws, inserts, and time.. They're all pretty much 6-32 threads, so you don't have to be Suick, or Phantom specific.
I'm guessing you're not looking to turn out hundreds of these..

They are not readily available around here and I am stuck ordering them from the US which increases my cost a fair amount. Odds are I will go through more than enough to justify the mold
I have been looking for a more cost effective supply without luck |

| If you have a plunge router and a cove bit, it's easy to make your own mold in a billet of aluminum

If I can’t find a mold available making one is the plan. I was considering high temperature silicone but your suggestion would have a longer lifespan
It would be convenient if a mold was available but have not been able to locate one |

| I made a few different silicone molds recently like the Choas weights. Works great and in about 30 min of pouring lead you have all you ever need. You could do the same with what you are looking for with silicone, I just used the two part off Amazon.
