| The guide I used was using an E.T hide as the mould so it must be fine. |

i did some of this yesterday, i used a small E-T hide and used a similar sized rock as a mould too. so i can vouch that E-T hides are fine at 100*C  the ingredients were enough to do both. and they DO take FOREVER to bake!!!! i removed the hide and stone moulds after about 2 hours in an attempt to speed things up a bit but they did another 2 hours in the oven.
still got the priming and painting to do though when i get the stuff
great idea matty  |
