Hi all,

Got a question: I have a referral for an IPOP AK. I'm curious as to
how you mold the proximal brim and trim it to a socket shape.

Is it accepatble to incorporate as IPOS brim, etc, into the cast??? I
thought about using that and then casting over it to reinforce it (this
is, of course over all the other stuff, the socks and pads, etc.) Any
thoughts, advice, would be greatly appreciated.

I'd normally write this up a a bit more eloquently, but my train is
arriving. Sorry for typos, etc.!!
