Scale painting just got a whole lot easier

Found this stuff at AC Moore's ( Michael's has it too) Moldable wire mesh ( can be had in copper or aluminum) You can mold it to shape of plug and keep it that way for time after time's use. 3 different sizes of scale opening, this is 1/8" pattern) They have 1/4, 1/8, 1/16. It's for clay modeling. Around 5 bucks a package you get two sheets from which you can cut 8 seperate patterns. Saw it last year and kept thinking it might work. You could have 8 different patterns ready for use with little effort like tightening bridal veil etc. Thought you guys might be interested.
