Les Young Posted March 2, 2020 Report Share Posted March 2, 2020 Just wondering, but could a person not lay a sheet of metal on it & get a flat back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass-Boys Posted March 2, 2020 Report Share Posted March 2, 2020 (edited) when it gets kinda solid flip the mold over on to a table top to cool. The paper Idea worked good . Edited March 2, 2020 by Bass-Boys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
