    Just be real careful when you do it cause it doesn't take much. Have the hooks on hand and take a small bit off each hook slot until the hook fits and the mold close's correctly. Do each one the same way and then try a pour.

    If everything went right the most you'll have to do is trim a little flash off of them, but it's usually not that bad.

    Good luck and if you need more help let us know.

    reaper,
    I use a dremel tool with a bit that has a tiny ball on the end, you will need to elongate the hook eye recess. doesn't matter that it's a round bit. and be careful not to let the tool get away from ya. I put the mold in a vise, and get some good light on the subject, put my reading glasses on and rest the bottom of the tool hand on the handle of the mold for stability, then just line the bit up with where ya wanna cut and rock your hand towards the intended spot ever so slowly so as to control the cutting good as ya can. just be sure ya don't run into the head cavity.
