I've got a very large fossil pecten maximus from a friend but the flat side is broken in pieces and I would like to reconstruct the complete shell by filling the bold shell up with a compound so I can put back the pieces of the flat shell on top of it recreating it almost completely. Can I use plaster to do this or is there something better on the market?
