Even those cookie cutter molds are expensive. I think I figured it to be $60 for an Alpha, Sigma and Tau. And for a Gamma, Phi and Beta, it would be more than $70!
Yeah, this might get expensive fast. Another option would be to use plaster of paris and then just cover the final mold with plastic wrap. I also read about using a pan of fine sand (don't know if wet or dry), which would also require plastic wrap, but would be much cheaper.

This stuff is a little cheaper:

I still don't know how many molds a pound of it would make.
