Thanks - let me know how your first project turns out... If you (or anyone) needs to order rtv material, perhaps we could start some sort of regional buying club to get better discounts... it it not the type of product normally foind in the local hobby store, so you aren't damaging local trade in your area!

Someone just brought to my attention that the way the article is laid out online, the LAST pictures are shown first, and the First pictures are at the end... so following the sequence of the artilce and the photos may be a bit distracting. Read the text first, and then review the photos from BOTTOM to TOP (or in numerical sequence as they are named --- Pic 1, Pic 2, etc.
[editors note] I fixed it, read the next post - sorry about that.

? May have been a conversion problem. Not sure, but anyway its fixed, quick and easy to add a sort order to the images.
Fixed and back to normal.

Another nice digital diamond.. Thanks for sharing it.
I agree with Keith, as he says in the article it would be very expensive to produce some "single use" pieces with this technique. But it would be very cheap to produce some often used pieces, like ammo boxes, fuel tanks, etc..
