What is more expansive, a positive or negative mold ?
Maybe a skilled person could built direct in negative, without need a positive first.

How create transparent parts, like the dome in this photo ?
I bet it need help of some industry, to heat and shape plexiglasshuge sheet pressing it against a mold.
