   <i>group assignment:</i>
      review the safety data sheets for each of your molding and casting materials,
         then make and compare test casts with each of them
      compare mold making processes
   <i>individual assignment:</i>
      design a mold around the process you'll be using,
         produce it with a smooth surface finish that
         does not show the production process toolpath,
         and use it to cast parts
      <i>extra credit</i>: use more then two mold parts
