I think you'll probably have to do that mould in two halves - top half and bottom half. What you use to make the mould depends on what you'll be making the casting (and I use that term loosely) from. Plus you'll want to make sure that you can get the mould off the former - in this case the wood, so that might preclude some materials being used.
That was my initial thoughts, but then I had another idea of doing a vertically split mould incorporating the undersides of the model .
All of this has been put on hold due to the present lockdown .
I was wondering of how to make some tyres . Racing cars in the early 60's had tread which is going to be a right pain to replicate . I was wondering if bald tyres could be made from old cycle inner tubes .
I have a plan for a Ferrari 156 Sharknose to the same scale . I need to see if I have enough balsa left .

I'm thinking about buying these 'trendy/fashionable' Clark's Wallabee shoes.

I'll take that, how much do you want to lose? Bear in mind I am not a gambling man & didn't lay down a dime in Las Vegas


Las Vegas.Oh boy.We did a Titan Tour of America and spent a few days in Las Vegas.Not liking crowded places,i was not looking forward to it.But once there i loved it.The madness the frenzy the heat the warmth.The size everything is big.The hotels,i love it.I could not stop gawking at everything.My two teenagers loved it.Gambling i walked out out of one casino with $1,000 mind you i walked in with $5,000 boom boom.
