Added 2020-02-04 21:58:06 +0000 UTCI thought it’d be fun to do another work post! So maybe some of you are familiar with mold making but I know I sure wasn’t at all not to long ago. Photo1-4 : is setting up the box for the mold. The Minecraft square is what we’re molding in this case! Glue it down and hot glue a wall making SURE there’s no cracks. Photo5-6 : make sure it’s level before you pour anything in it. Or you’ll end up with a HUGE mess 😅 I’ve learned the hard way. Photos7-8: Silicone and the blue stuff! As I call it 😂 i wasn’t really able to take a photo of the measurements I used. But I used about 9oz of silicone and you SHAKESHAKESHAKE the blue stuff a min or so before pouring. You pour for color more than anything. You want to make sure you pour enough for it to not take 5 days to settle. I usually will do enough to cover all the surface and a splash more. Then STIR. You would then usually vacuum it to get the bubbles out, but I didn’t have access at the time to use a machine. Photos9-12 : After about 3-4 hours I removed the silicone and popped out the piece! 😄 13-16: Next you’ll want to have a quick cast or 1630. I’m issuing quickcast. Equal parts of A and B mixed well and then poured into the mold. As it heats up it hardens which is the white surface. 17- now you can make as many of these pieces that you need! I’ll update later to show what I’m making them for ☺️ I know not everyone enjoys this but I know some love it! Let me know ! ❤️
