The team has over 15 years of mold design expertise and a clear maker-to-maker origin story. Hands-on demos from real creators show the device in use—and working! While this is their first campaign, their product testing and community engagement build strong trust.

This is next-level maker tech—compact, plug-and-play, and safe enough for your desk. Built-in heating, mixing, and injection in one slick unit eliminates the need for extra gear. Plus, the preset mold library and 3D print compatibility offer wild creative freedom.

SALTGATOR’s recycle-and-remold approach helps reduce bait waste from hobby fishing. Eco-safe heating and sealed design show real care for workspace safety and sustainability. Shipping fees are TBD, which could impact perceived transparency for global backers.

Starts at $229 for the Super Early Bird, a full $160 off future MSRP—solid value for pro-level tooling. Even the $299 tier undercuts most comparable molding setups, which often require bulky extras. Bundle deals (2 for $429, 5 for $1,049) make it an affordable studio or group buy upgrade.
