this takes time to perfect and can be exspensive when you first start as you will always make mistakes to start with and this wastes a lot of material.
you will also need to put a lot of thought into every mold you want to create as every item you want to copy is different from the next and certain items will require different molding tecniques.
any hobbycraft or model shop that sells railway stuff will have all the basic stuff needed to get you started.
if there is something specific you have you wont to copy pm me and the next time i mold i will do it for you.
someone else also asked a while ago of i could do some bits for them but i cant remember who so let me know!

Went to pendel hill (propper haunted village http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendle_witches) with a few mate's not long back and it was like going back in time.

that would be awsome.
a few years back me and my brothers and a few mates thought we would have a laugh on haloween.
we dressed up in white sheets and looked like we were in the kkk hid behind trees on the road down to the duke of wellington pub in high beach , epping forest and spent an hour jumping out on cars slowly coming down the hill , the look of sheer horror on the peoples faces was priceless will never forget it....pmsl
