and let harden
 Heat more Shapelock and press it
onto top of pick, completely
covering bottom half of mold
 After all the Shapelock is cool, pry
everything apart
IT SHOULD LOOK LIKE THIS
OPTIONAL FOLLOWUP
Use
new mold to impress clay
around a metal blank (don’t
forget the release agent), carve
interesting shapes and bevels
into it, imprint your area code,
bake clay, let cool, and repeat
Shapelock molding process with
your new pick handle
