The double tumblers would drive the double drive dogs like you have pictured in your mold. I don't know the weight of your model but the tumblers cast from epoxy should be strong enough. Keep it simple. Just my opinion.
I like that idea. I am curious as to how strong epoxy is and I look forward to testing it. Simple is good.
