I'm working with wood, at first I thought I'd make a whole
bunch maybe for sight tokens. But for now I'm just trying to
make enough for our Canton. But if we used a few as molds
for sand castings, who knows. Now that it's warmed up a bit
I can start carving again out in the garage. I can only do
about one a night (free night) so it's going to take some
time.
