Perhaps your moulder would be willing to mod the mold for water cooling.
I doubt he would.. He has already eaten two batches on a very limited demand. Although we really appreciate his efforts.

I have a feeling the cost of modifying the mold would exceed the gross sales of those props by a large factor.

It maybe would only need a couple of deep holes and some fittings, but I don't really know what the molds look like, or how they hook on to the machine. I wonder how the molds worked before. They must have been used at one time. Anyway, thanks again to Bernie for trying.

Altering the mould would cost a minimum of $6,000 and, to sell 300-400 props per year, definitely not an option, unfortunately.
