The same store that sells model train supplies should carry a latex rubber
for you to make molds from as well. It is usually of a lesser quality than
the professional stuff but to get a feel for using the stuff and to try out
before you commit yourself to the more high price brands and higher quality
stuff it works fine. It usually comes in a ghastly green color to keep the
kiddies from eating it. yucky...

Keep 'em Flying
