I actually have the other half done. Just working on the frame/press mechanism right now. Just got back from business out-of-town followed by a week of camping at the beach. Only to find a mile high In-box waiting for me at work.

Weekends don't seem to be enough anymore!

I saw someone selling molds on ebay not too long ago, i have no idea how good they are, for all i know the decks they put out look like variflex's, but it's worth a try, they were only like 50 bucks

I like the idea of a concrete mold because it is solid as, it doesn`t flex or move, you have a lot of weight even before you apply an extra psi.




and if someone pisses you off then you can hit them with it

Thanks Destru,
Yeah, I used the fist mold to make the second.
I'm gonna press my first decks this weekend. I'll try one first, then two or three at a time, Ease into it, see how it works, see how the press rig holds up.

Don't press too many. The decks will not be the same if you press too many at a time. 5 is a good amount. They'll all have the exact form. Doing more than that will make the decks on the inside of the stack flatter.
