description

An unusual moulding set which produces large slabs rather than blocks - generally the whole side of a building or half a roof. The moulds are not premade, but made up by the user from a huge array of small wooden components, which one tacks onto a soft board on the underside of the box lid. The set includes designs for a number of structures. Sheets are provided showing the layout of mould parts for the building sections. These are intended to be placed on the board, under a sheet of clear plastic, before tacking down the mould parts to the pattern shown. A small tube of oil is provided to lubricate the inside of the mould before you pour in the moulding compound.
