A method of manufacturing a fishing lure includes positioning a feather or fur portion about a mold that approximates a body of a fishing lure. The feather or fur portion is positioned proximal to where a fin of the fishing lure would be. The method includes filling the mold with a flexible material to form the fishing lure body, wherein the flexible material engages the feather or fur portion to encapsulate at least a portion thereof within the fishing lure body and ejecting the completed fishing lure body having feather or fur portions at the position proximal to where a fin of the fishing lure would be. A related fishing lure/bait is also provided.

A method of manufacturing feather-filled items of clothing includes the following steps: preparing at least one mold provided with first concavities of shape substantially complementary to a respective padded cambered region of at least one portion of the item of clothing to be obtained; and associating a first sheet of deformable material with the mold. The method further includes deforming the first sheet against the mold so as to obtain, on the first sheet, second concavities that substantially correspond to the first concavities of the mold. Then, each second concavity of the first sheet is filled with down, and a second sheet is anchored to the first sheet. The semi-finished product is removed from the mold.

This device is a memorial product manufactured with cremation remains encased in various non-glass materials. A is the making of a special impression molding device from an original form of a person, pet or special object, alive or deceased, and processing this form as a memorial and a vessel made from cremation ashes.
