[Jewelry making - Article 01419] - Re: [Orchid] Being charged too much for simple molds....

    If anyone is looking for a mold making or casting service I would be
     happy to discuss their needs off list. 

    by the way I charge $25.00 to make a vulcanized mold with one wax 
    pattern and have been charging that same fee for over twenty years. 

    While the cost of rubber, equipment, wax, overhead etc. keeps going
    up  it is making it more and more difficult to keep costs low for
    making a quality product. I think the prices that have been quoted on
    the list recently for making a mold are right in line. 

Thank you
