So, I'm looking at making some emblems.  I don't really want to mess with casting these out of actual metal so I've been looking at cold casting.

Basically you mix metal powder into an epoxy/resin, pour it, then polish it.

Anyone done this?  Know what kind of epoxies to use, or whatnot?  If possible I'd like to not have to add metal powder to the mix, so something that has metal powder already in it (does JB Weld?) would be nice.
