I have several graphite molds, but I did not know about ceramic molds.    It's 
important to treat the graphite molds careful because the graphite damages 
easily if abused.   I am told they will eventually wear out, but I have some 
molds that have probably run near 100 shots and they still work fine...    
Regarding cost, I think the shots run about $2 to $3 each when you buy them by 
the box.    Shop around, prices vary.

​While on the subject, rather than using the "one shot" units, has anyone used 
the  reusable ceramic molds?  I expect to use between 30 and 40 ground rods for 
my towers and shack ground systems.  It seems to me to be much more economical 
to use the reusable molds.
