Aren't you going to have threads on the plates?

Threads? As in pour and air holes?  ???

Threads on the plate not in. Threading to screw the rods on.  :)

That's interesting, are yours threaded? My flag and poles (originals) are just push fit!

OK! mine are not original they came from Slovenia years ago. Both rods are tapped one has a metal plate and the other from pexilas. They've been tapped on the lower end for an aerial connection.

Okay, first 'test' mould complete. Not bad, only did half of it to test colour/plastic/mould etc... needs a little bit more work, but opinions of it so far? Apologies for the bad quality photos by the way, my camera hates fake light so night's the worst time to use it  ::)





Due to the bad resolution it's hard to get a good impression of it, but the "REAR" is actually very crisp, and the jagged edge is only caused through me moulding one half and not two...
