The plan has VOLKSRODS and your one has VOLKSROD. Are they a different batch? Can a VOLKSRAT be made?

I think he had to reduce the lettering so they had more room at casting. He only made 50 and then shotup the mold with his shotgun.

Mmmmm Shooting moulds with shotguns must be real satisfying. What next. Shooting Barbie dolls with Nerf guns?
