Abstract: An adjustable filler means for molds and method thereof which comprises a molding flask adapted to adjustably receive and support a plurality of mold-contouring fingers arranged to be functionally held in spaced relation to a pattern within the flask, so as to be readily moved and adjusted to conform to any irregular contour of such pattern or core print disposed within the flask, and wherein a contour medium is provided between the fingers and the surface of the pattern to establish a contoured space between the fingers and pattern, whereby molding sand is provided therein to form the face of a mold or core.

Abstract: A non-snagging fishing sinker comprising a flexible plastic bag having at least three sides defined thereby, wherein one side is open to allow various weight-providing materials to be placed therein, preferably wet sand. Disposed along and adjacent to the open side are a plurality of holes to receive a wrapping wire which is provided with an eye hook to be attached to a conventional fishing line. There is also formed adjacent and below the holes a weakened area, whereby the lower portion of the bag can be easily separated from the fishing line when the sinker is snagged; that is, the bag is allowed to tear along the weakened area.
