Stop giving out bad info. Some of us have actually built multiple tracks using Smooth-Cast 300 and it simply doesn't cost as much as you indicate. Chris B. can probably confirm these numbers as well:

1) It takes less than 1 gallon of resin to make 2 complete tracks with inside and outside treads. In fact, John and Paul are currently building 4 small tracks and they'll be using less than 1.5 gallons for all 4 tracks.

2) A gallon-size Smooth-Cast 300 (2 1-gallon parts) costs $82.00

3) Both rubber tread molds (inner and outer) can be made using the Trial Size of OOMOO 25. Such molds don't require much rubber, because the treads aren't very thick.

4) A trial size of 00MOO 25 costs $25.00

5) You don't really need mold release for OOMOO 25 because treads aren't very complicated and OOMOO doesn't really stick too much. Use a couple coats of wax on the plug and you'll have no problem. We've never had a problem with the resin sticking to the mold. In fact, the resin doesn't cure as well if you use mold release.

Total Price: $107.00 + shipping + tax.
