Mold for razors and stand

[Monty]

I am in the process of casting some blanks for fusion razors and razor stands (from CSUSA) and discovered I do not have a resin saver mold for 3 inch long blanks. I contacted Fred, PTownSubbie, to see if any of the molds he makes would hold a 3 inch 7mm tube. Unfortunately, none of his current molds can hold a 3 inch long tube. However, he said he would consider adding one to his inventory if there was enough interest.
So, who out there would purchase a Resin Saver Mold for the 3 inch, 7mm tubes for razors and stands?

Possibly in a year

I would be happy to have one of the molds. I can see a bunch of opportunities for really colorful razor handles.

Molding razors and stands; an excellent idea!!

Fred said that there was interest in the mold. He is in the process of making them.

I wonder if this would work for a seam ripper.

Depends, what is the tube and bushing size for a seam ripper? The tubes for the razors and stand are 7mm, 3 inches long and the bushing size ranges from 0.490 to 0.530.

Both of the styles of seam ripper kits I've seen commonly available use an 8mm tube...

Yup. 8mm or O. Super close.

I didn't know if the mold plugs would be able to accommodate an 8mm tube...

It will handle the 8mm tube but what is the tube length? That's the joy of using tapered plugs.......

Mine and 3 1/8" long. The length is nowhere near important with these though and the eighth could easily be trimmed.

I think it would be neat that it could pull double duty with this two items.
