I guess I could go the extra distance and actually make it robust enough to support a cast plaster roof...that way I could build a removeable roof in the future?

Nah it's not that bad. The trick with Hirst Arts molds is just to cast them more or less constantly :). I usually do a couple a week in my spare time. That way you have a stock of common pieces built up. Around half of the simple gothic blocks for this project came from my pre-cast stores. Plus with such a large project it's built in sub-parts...so I can cast and build at the same time. I'm just about to start doing that for the Cathedral. The only annoyance is that this project will pretty much clear out my stock of pieces...but that's ok since I figure it's going to be at least a year of work to get it finished anyway - plus I have at least 2 other half finished Hirst Arts projects to complete.
