Does not work, as this starts to limit the construction methods that one
can use when building. Strictly the above would mean that I would not be
allowed to wet a piece of carbon with epoxy, set up a sandwich of
carbon-balsa-carbon, and then wrap it around a piece of carved plywood
to cure to form the shape of a VP screw holder, as the plywood part is a
mold. Of course you could argue that such simple molds are available to
the average builder, but then, how would you define what is available to
the average builder and what not?
