I am learning a new skill, concrete casting which I hope to use in the replacement of missing finial/urns in the local cemetery I am rehabbing. I took 3 original urns to an Amish woodworker and he replicated them for me. I used them as the model for my master molds. Originally I wanted to use a two piece box mold but found that to be cost prohibitive. I settled on a blanket mold that is encased in a hard shell mother mold. It not a cheap or simple process. I now have my 3 molds and am experimenting with my concrete mixture.
