Greetings Esteemed Colleagues:

Well that's the salutation on the latest appeal for donations I
received. Thought I'd try it on the group. Anyhow I am working on a
project where I have to make casts of human bones. If you are not
involved on the preparator's side of things, perhaps you could forward
my request on. I need to know of any commercially available bone-look
alike material and any tips on what to use as the casting material. Any
help or direction would be appreciated - likewise direction to the
literature.
