Sandman and canalrat if you do go the route of casting into a homemade mold, you can make a really durable mold out of 50%pottery plaster/50%fine mesh silica or you could use investment castable that jewlers use (its a bit more$$).. these 2 materials are meant to go to high temps in the thousands of degrees... if either of you guys do it, shoot me a pm and I will share what I know about mold making...i took a few classes in college on glass casting and would be happy to help out for a few tins
