    Dave this is awesome! Thank you very much. I'd certainly enjoy a step by step molding procedure if you have the time, but what you've posted will certainly help me in future endeavors. I will definitely look into the latex product. I've been using the flexible 'putty' you get at craft stores. That product doesn't allow for the kind of molding you've done with the latex. Cool beans!!

    I am working up a full thread from carving the plug to pouring the ship, sails and base, but it will be a while. Meanwhile I buy all my supplies from Hobby Lobby of all places! If I buy one item a week I can use their 40% app coupon and save $ to spend on more stuff . . . so the madness is fed. Just what ship to do next . . .

    Great news! Thank you for doing so when you have the time. I'll probably get in hot water with Ares for suggesting this, but we know they 'oversized' both the USS Constitution and the Ocean class French ships. Accurate scale for them would be nice. If Bobby were still active here he'd likely request Great Lakes ships from the War of 1812 (both US and British)?

    Thanks for your work!
