I looked at it at one stage but going by the experiences of others I didn't go down that route.
It takes much experimentation to get it right. I do make my own Jigheads. http://www.topfisher.eu/lead-heads-and-lure-heads/
I use www.bricoleurre.com moulds. Bricoleurre also do everything required for soft lure manufacture.
