7mm molds .. worth making?

[NewLondon88]

I don't mind making them, but would need to have some idea if people
would want them or not. If only a few need them, it wouldn't be cost
effective to have the masters made.

The idea is to have a 7mm mold with extra long tubes. This should allow you
to cast blanks for Slimlines, Streamlines, Euros, Funlines, Perfume pens,
keychains, Dart kits, Bracelet assistants . .and on and on.

If there's enough interest, I'll get moving on it. If not enough people are
interested, I'll shelve the idea for now.

I like.

I guess my question would be how big would you make them in diameter? Some people who do slimlines like to make bulbous ends and such. You'd have to specify a diameter for it to be worthwhile for someon to vote.

I've been thinking about this for a little while now......I'd definately be interested in a 7mm resin saver mold. How many would be in a single mold? Would think you could get more in one than on the larger molds.

Barney .. probably 12 1/2" tubes in the 7mm mold.. at least that's what we're
thinking as of now..

 

[Chuck Johnson]

I would be interested in them. I have the same questions as those before me. How many per mold and size.

Chuck ..we posted at the same time .. see above

Well, keep us posted as to what you come up with and when these might be available.....

It looks like there's enough interest to go forward with this.
(although Don Ward seems to be on the fence about it..)
I'll contact the machinist and ask him to make the masters.
Should be able to start shipping two days after I get them.

OK, off the fence for me. I'll take one.

Got you down for one.. they're taking a few days, since there is a little backlog
and the buy 3 get 1 free sale is still going on.

I'll be in for one in late January. No $$ for toys till then.
