Dear John,

    The Tekcast company is a great "Made in America" company. Everything
    still made right there. I bought a used spin caster made about twenty
    years ago and it still works great. In New York a couple of years ago
    they gave me a great tour even though I only had a used machine that
    I didn't even buy from them. They are a great source of technical
    information. They sell the Dow Corning Silastic brand which I still
    feel is the best silicone on the market. I would use their
    recommendation for what to use for casting. You could ask them about
    the comparison between the liquid and gum rubber mold material. I
    just cast plastic with my machine so I don't know as much about
    pewter casting. Tekcast is a great source though. 

Best Regards,
Todd Hawkinson
