    Hi Jean; That doesn't sound like typical practice to me.  I do trade
    work, and when I make a mold for someone, they get the mold, since
    I'm charging them for both labor and materials.  I sometimes keep the
    mold for them so they don't have to send it back to me if they want
    additional castings done.  Next time you need something cast for you,
    get hold of Daniel Grandi or myself.
