Oh, that's a good question. Honestly, the content was a mess. They sent over a folder of stuff that looked like it was written by three different people, none of whom had talked to each other. I ended up having to rewrite half of it myself just to make it flow right. No all-nighters, but I did work through a couple of dinners. My wife was not thrilled, but the extra fifty percent made the pizza taste pretty good. I guess the real trick is having a client who actually has their act together, which is rare as hen's teeth.

Oh yeah, propane torch is the way to go, I started doing that last year after I messed up a batch with the oven method. It just gets the mold hot way faster and you don't have to wait around forever for it to cool down to the right temp. I actually keep a little torch right by my workstation now, just a quick pass over the mold and it's good to go, no more worrying about cold spots or uneven heating. Plus you can really focus on the tricky areas where material tends to thicken up, like corners and details. Honestly, once you switch to a torch you'll never go back to waiting for an oven or heat gun.
