<P>Well we usually do the tokens out of leather, but we were interested in doing them out of clay this year. The only thing is to decide on the shape and design. We want to do a shape of the two towers and port cullis in between, which is simple enough. They can be fired and glazed really beautifully, and the materials, tools, and kiln, are already taken care of. Just wondered if we could make a die cast(?) to make the impressions of MSF XI into the clay.</P>

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