Roger:

I have no experience with a prospector, however from my experience with constructing my Redfish Silver, the stem form is attached to the station so the inner stem when mounted on the stem form is just proud of or flush with the station. The stem is then shaped to accept strips and conform to the station.

hope this helps.

Jim

: HOW FAR BELOW THE TOP OF THE LAST STATION MOLD SHOULD THE STEM MOLD BE. WE
: ARE BUILDING TED MOORES PROSPECTOR AND THE HEIGHT DIFFERENCE SEEMS TO BE
: GREATER THAN THE THICKNESS OF THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE STEMS? COULD THIS BE
: CORRECT? ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

: THANKS IN ADVANCE,

: ROGER
