hmmm... Richard,<br>do you just need a robotic finger or a whole hand?<br>Will the finger just point or must it be able to bend?<br>must the finger have traction, e.g. be able to grip something, rubbery or smooth service?<br>
<br>A hand from a fashion store figurine might work too.<br>Cheers,<br>Pieter Britz.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Jul 5, 2011 at 6:38 PM, Carl Ranson <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:carl.ranson@gmail.com">carl.ranson@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I'm just wondering where I could get the moulding ingredients from
locally, and how to go about the process?<br>
