Will try to get to part two before the end of the week.<br /><br />@Telecanter: the best part is making your own molds, once you become comfortable with the casting side.<br /><br />@Christian: glad you liked!<br /><br />@James: will get to the cost of molds, and the mold-making process. The mold-making process will have to wait til august, when I make some additional molds... I will do some photos of that process.<br /><br />@biopunk: I just set my ipod to shuffle-mode, and let the awesome variety wash over the molds!Aaron E.
