Hi Thanks for your info.. Yes I tried the coffee tin, it really isn't what I want but I tried..... It shaped OK but the loaf was far too short, I am sort of toying with the idea of trying to extend the coffee actually I used a large soup can, but to put an extension on it of parchment like you would a souffle.
And Chicago Metalics, they only do sets of 4 latched together and I think they were about $150 plus exchange and plus postage. would work out rather too expencive...... Another place did sets of 2 at $73 with exchange and post comes to about $100 any way they were sold out. ;-)))))
