Looking for Taboo-style or SuperGee-style pod or mold

http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1750329

Looking for a new or good condition Taboo-style or SuperGee-style pod, or mold for same. Anyone have one sitting in their workshop unused?

Any other ideas for making my own fuselages economically?

I've seen your pods before, they look nice but I wasn't certain how well they'd fit with what I have already. Do they fit SuperGee/Lawicki booms?
I'm really looking for something I can use to make a mold, not a single piece that I'd have to purchase again for the next airframe. Since you're currently selling your pods, I wouldn't want to pull a mold from one.

Yes, they do share the same dimensions.

My boom tenon is .620-.625 .

If you only need a few pods and want to mould your own a quick mould can be made with hydrocal. You can make a mould using it from a foam plug. A hydrocal mould is good for about 30 parts before it gets a bit beat up. You could also make a pod using the lost foam method.
