Greetings Bernard,<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Being a fan of CAD I can appreciate your query. If it would help I might suggest the web site &quot;composite.about.com/industry/composite/msubmfgcustom.htm&quot;. It is a composite materials guidesite. Go to &quot;technology transfer&quot;, then to the subject &quot;how to's&quot;, then to &quot;mold construction techniques&quot;. That is an email conversation about model airplane materials and casting techniques. If your unable to find that &quot;for those that might benifit&quot; conversation. I aquired this email address from that site for you to contact him directly. The gentleman stated that he welcomes imput and I think would enjoy hearing from you. <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I welcome your responce and results. Hope this helps.<br><br>Technovator
