Hi all,

I want to make a little egg shaped hollow form, (narrower at the top than the bottom). I thought press forming would be the way to go, length ways - fat end to thinner end, but I have found that I'm unable to get it deep enough without the metal splitting, so after completing the two halves they create an almond shape instead of a nice egg shape.

My plan was something the size of a chocolate mini egg, but I can't think how to do it.

If I make the two halves from doming (so the join would be across the middle), again I'm not sure I can get the sides high enough, and anyway, I can't see how I can match them up as one would be wider than the other.

I'm hoping there's a simple way to do it, that I just haven't thought of - and that someone can enlighten me as to how it's done. I definitely want an egg shape, not round.

Thanks
Sue
