Nice! what #EPS you using? i couldnt find any XPS here in cali for a reasonable price...dirt cheap over there though eh?
my next stick will definetly be leaning towards compsand....
keep up the good work!
PS.. your stoked cause you dont need an oven.... Cook your shaped blank in black trash bags in the car on a hot day....
better out gas that XPS now then have it go under the glass...
