I understand that. I've seen the get started molding set at Hobby Lobby for like $25 But I Agree with the use what ya got. Heck I even used plumbing parts left over from a job to build models with.
so i try with more but i will let it rest until the morning lets hope i can get good results from this method

so the molds tale is like this:
the 1st try (the one i post below) give me 5 molds instead of 8 to use and the 2nd try was unable to be used. so ill stay to the first cast i made ill work slow but i dont want to waste more materials anymore. now i been trying to make some casting and i had to learn in the hard way (by wasting money and materials). i used Paste Wall and didnt work, then i use cast sadly was in powder form not paste so i pass 2 days trying to do Water/Powder proportions whichi ended in disaster. in the end i was able to buy and use this called modeling paste. and now i can make casting properly i left the few photos i been taking. sorry for taking so long ill do better next time

I've tried casting before, and I didn't do well. Keep on trying, you'll find what works for you.
I commend you on your efforts, determination and dedication in learning how to cast parts like this! I wish you the very best in finding what works well for you and gives you the results and finished product that you are wanting.
Wanted to Re-Post the photos regarding the casting and cleansing procedure of the tracks so here we go again

ok so i wanted to continue this project but sadly there will be no more updates on the Centaur Project i decided to tear it down with the Emperor's Holy Fire since i cant work with a project with template problems (author fault) and looking my mistakes in the project is more painful ty for your comprehension
So sorry to hear that you have to stop building this project I have to say that I enyoed watching you building this model. Im looking forward to see a new project from you.
I am sorry to hear that you were having so many problems with this project. I do understand your frustration. I too have had issues with templates that have problems that were never addressed.
I hope that you have better success with your next project!

Well, it was still a worth while venture, you showed us an interesting way to produce more tracks!
Deal! Once I build something big enough to need those again... I'm pretty sure I won't wait long to find something...
