All a uniform depth and didn't look cheesy when done. I've seen some molds that have been dremeled and decided not to go that route. They can wander if not controlled right. I'm sure some folks are more practiced with this than I am. I'm headed to Home Depot today for a round scroll saw blade to add a groove to a mold to accept a weedless wire, I'll keep you posted. Some great info here.
On the weedless wire get your mold that you want to add wire guard real hot lay your hook,wire guard where you want it squeeze the mold together the hot mold and wire will make a groove right where you want it in the mold!!
