Hi Folks,
Just to share some new sweet chocolaty looking moulds I've just finished to replace my old worn out ones.
Its very stiff and heavy too but its not solid ME!

The core are MDF boards and covered with fake ME veneer. I may add on some inlays later!....

It is almost disgusting how easy those things are to make. Just a few pieces of MDF glued up and then some veneer glued on. They do look great though. Way to make a simple jig look classy [:Y:]
