In Response To: Re: Other: Polyethylene (Reg Lake)

About 10 years ago, I had a plug made by Janicki.

It was very expensive (over 12K) and they did a fantastic job. It is an incredible factory.

So they were willing to do a job for a single individual but it was not at all cheap. I also have heard that aluminum molds are ~50K
