Molds

Grease the madeleine molds and pour in the batter (but not all the way to the top; the madeleines will rise!)

Campana, who calls himself an animal orthotist, is sawing a piece of medical grade plastic in half, pouring plaster into molds, and scraping hardened plaster from a soon to be finished device to make sure it fits his client just right.

His workshop contains the molds of prosthetic legs he constructed for a couple of elephants in Thailand who lost their limbs from landmine explosions.

Over there on that tree, there are some slime molds in their sexual reproductive state.

With a candle-making machine and molds, invented in Rwanda, production costs are about two cents per candle. Candles imported from China cost about 10 cents each in Rwanda. So the economic advantages of this low-tech project are clear — and the Institute hopes these candles and other products will easily find a market in Rwanda.
