And they are reasonably close in Scotts Valley. I'm definitely going to have to get one of those.
EDIT: Interesting that the Makezine article has a pretty big problem. It doesn't actually show you how to make the 'second half' of the epoxy mold. To make the second half, you would have to assemble the mold and then pour epoxy into the assembled mold. Depending on the material you'd probably end up some how pumping that epoxy in, and you would need to pull a vacuum on it to avoid bubbles.

Its a nit of course, but worth considering.
