I'm not completly clueless with shaping the plug and painting it with 2k and polishing it, it just the materials I'm alittle unsure with. I did a fair bit of mould design and theory at collage Btec in industrial model making. We covered the basics like the best way to split a mould to avoid non releasing returns etc but it was all for plastic injection machines. Unfortunatly I had to get a job and I did'nt finish the course. I'm lucky with where I live as there are 3-4 large yacht builders within 6 miles of my workshop so I'll see what can walk out the back door when no ones watching. Any pointers greatfuly received in these sticky matters though.
