    Have not tried this but it was tip to me a while ago:  Purchase an
    'egg' of Silly Putty in a novelty/toy store (in the aisle next to
    the Slinky) place putty in refrigerator until firm but still pliable,
    make desired impression in putty, return putty to refrigerator or
    freezer while you melt wax, then mold away.  This will take some
    experimentation, but worth a try. Margery Cooper, Jewelry and
