Hi Chester,<div><br></div><div>Thanks for your kind offer of help with casting a finger. Would it be possible to call into your workshop on Friday? I could do early morning, lunchtime or evening. Or some other day if that suits better. I'll come prepared with cash just in case you have ingredients to sell me. What I'm wanting to make is a somewhat life like, maybe bloody, finger for a useless machine along these lines <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwasL7sGV6Y">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwasL7sGV6Y</a> I can ring before I come to make sure you are there and not too busy. Very impressed by your web site by the way. My son Paul is involved in visual effects in Auckland, was working on Spartacus, not sure exactly what he's employed on at the moment.</div>

Does anyone have any suggestions for how to cast a robotic finger? I recall Charles Fimm and Kay coming up with suggestions for taking moulds of body parts at past meetings. I would like to create a somewhat realistic looking index finger. I'm just wondering where I could get the moulding ingredients from locally, and how to go about the process?<br>
