Cherry Wood Marble Molds

[n3wt]

any one know of a good source? you must soak them before use i'm assuming..

I know people sell them but I have always made mine. Find someone that does woodworking and see if you can get a block of cherry from them. Soak it for a while (a couple weeks) with a weight on it so it gets completely waterlogged, then cut/drill it however you need. Get a cop of Drew Fritt's book - http://frittsartglass.com/marbles/books/volume1/TOC.html - it has nice instructions for making your own wood mold.

I just looked in the local phonebook and found a guy with a small custom wood shop. He cut me about 10 for $20.
