RE: I would like to ask some questions

Greetings Bernard,

    Being a fan of CAD I can appreciate your query. If it would help I might suggest the web site "composite.about.com/industry/composite/msubmfgcustom.htm". It is a composite materials guidesite. Go to "technology transfer", then to the subject "how to's", then to "mold construction techniques". That is an email conversation about model airplane materials and casting techniques. If your unable to find that "for those that might benifit" 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.
    I welcome your responce and results. Hope this helps.
