Good post. I make my own also. Always good to find someone that does that.

Here's a pic of some of the ones that I make (these are 2 and 6 oz).
I just cut a piece of 1/4" ABS plastic into the shape and sizes (roughly 2-10 oz) and pushed them down flush into a plaster of Paris (dried in the oven through a couple of nights bakings).
The eye hole is drilled. For extra sticking power I drill tight fitting holes in the bottom two corners of some of the 10 oz'ers to tap 2-1/4" pieces of soft wire through--the wire bends if it snags.
I like this shape because they will plane to the surface when retrieved and doesn't get stuck in the rocks like a lot of the others.
2 and 6 oz no-roll planing weights

Neat sinkers. Thank you. I pour a few simular using teaspoon and tablespoon for molds. They really do swim on retrieve.

A few more of my "no rolls" that I use for trolley rigs when fishing for salmon off the pier. I throw them with a 15-ft pole on 300 lb braided line using an off-the-rail style cast.
For some reason I don't have to yell "MAKE A HOLE!!!" twice.
