Hey Steve, have you considered cutting the mold & die via cnc, and using a hydraulic press to crunch out the pieces? My neighbor's make there mold's out of hardwood for 1 time use, or aluminum for multi use. Market for the corn binder's?
Later, Neil.

Neil I don't think to many people restore the old bubble nose fleetstars I did enough of them 1 of them is 3 cabs in 1 + new hammered back corners the 1st 1 I ran I put 3 549 gassers in then converted it over to diesel with a 466B then rebuilt that motor before the frame rotted through at the tandems its now a single axle . still has the best cab in the fleet next to my 2070A . the 3 cabs in 1 has yet to get back together My dad is hoping to put it on a s1900 frame before he passes to put my 1st back together , to complete the old fleet . If he doesn't I will in my spare time
