Guaging interest in Cruzer Jango gauntlets

man i wish i had the money to pick up a set of these babies! DARN IT! will you be doing another run of these sometime in the near future?
 
Small update:
The cold weather is not helping at all with the test pulls, but I'll keep trying and should be able to offer cold-cast versions after it starts to heat up a bit outside.
Psh, just pour them in your bathroom. It should be warm in there, and I believe brain cells grow back eventually :D
 
PM sent for interest on regualr cast gauntlets but it looks like I jumped the gun seeing as how I just read that you will soon post the official interest thread. Sorry, I got to excited with the update.
 
If I could compare your gauntlets with something to eat, I would use the "spaghetti alla carbonara"!!!!:lol:
mmmmm nomm nomm !!:lol:lol::lol:
 
Here's a sneak preview. It's a rough cast with many blemishes, but I used it just to see how it'd polish. Then I scuffed it up a bit to see how it stood up to scratching. It was a little soft, so I'll need to increase the catalyst a bit next time. The cold-cast is going to take a bit more work and a lot more attention than gel-coat.:eek:

The first pic is with flash. Tomorrow I'll take an outside pic in the sun.

Also, pics of something I made for fun. It's a Hyper-firm missile made of "nerf" foam like material. It can be bent and then returns to its original shape. My son and I were throwing it around earlier today in the house and when it hit a window, it bounced right off.:)

I was thinking a projectile chore reminder for my son!:lol: I'd like to cast jet pack rockets with some of this stuff and then rig them to shoot with compressed air.

Cold-cast pic in clouded sunlight. Best I'll be able to do today.
This morning I went out and bought a small portable heater. And today I'll build a "hot box" for it that'll fit the gauntlet shell molds so I can speed up the cold cast's curing process.(y)

Thanks
