Plastic (?) moulds/forms
I'm not wild about that term oud "mould", but I guess it is correct.
On this site, we have seen pictures of both Turunz' shop and Kyvelos' shop in which it appears that their oud moulds were made out of some sort of
synthetic material. Any idea what this is? And how it is made?

Hi Jonathan,
I make the moulds out of wood and MDF. In order to prevent the mould from sticking to the ribs I paint them with synthetic paint. The look is a bit
misleading for that reason. I have never used any plastic substances for making the moulds. Please look at the photos. You will easily realize the
wooden parts of the mould seeming underneath it.
Warmest regards,
Faruk Türünz

Faruk Usta:
Thank you very very much for the information. The photograph above had been posted earlier, but somehow I did not see it.
I have enjoyed very much seeing the specialized tools that you use in your shop.
