We've just added acoustic body molds to our product list. Our heavy-duty plywood molds have some unique features that make them different from other molds currently on the market. Stop by our website to check them out.

Nice idea Todd. I wish I had available wall space in my shop so I could get more things like this off the floor.

Ears are better than the clips. The clip is in the way for clamping blocks.

My L-00 mold. Because the bolts holding it together are a bit away from the inside edge it helps to remove a little bit of the mold near the bolt, so there is a taper starting at zero where the mold halves join to a 1/8" where the bolt goes through. This helps the bolt exert pressure at the inside of the mold where the two halves met. Can't really see that in the picture as I have it clamped tight and the gap is closed up.

Shipping that across the sea has to be very expensive. Are there more economical shipping options for international orders, such as airline freight?

At this time I'm not aware of a really affordable option for overseas shipping. If you like I can get you a quote.
