Thank you for this video. It's very knowledgeable. I'm learning to be a mold maker and I saw in another video from Rio Grande mold videos that they put a little dawn dish soap on the aluminum sheets and spread it so the mold can come off right away. Hope that helps you to not burn yourself so much.
Thank you Lauren Co. , haha that is such a cool concept having a family art show! I must be different having 3 artists in the family... I've been thinking maybe a museum instead of a home ... Cheers!
Hi Lauren I'm an artist from ontario canada and I really like your show..Its very original and reflects alot of the things that I've been learning from your chanel...Cheers!
whats better please? vulcanized rubber moulds or liquid silicone moulds? is one better than the other for high detail? whats the life duration comparison? is one more expensive than the other would really appreciate a bit of insight - for i am a noob lol
Un molde vulcanizado de una medalla o una estatua,es posible con la ayuda de un poco de petroleo hacerlo que aumente de tamaño asta un 500 por ciento. El molde en cuestion sehunde en petroleo,y este sehincha reproduciendo el grabado:una vez hinchado con cera de parafina se reproduce la ampliacion.a este proceso le llamé "jonapru",espero les sirva
....you murdered my interest in what you are doing....the Obama thing is extremely distasteful. Look around. American culture is Imploding and our people are being exploited. How? You ask... 1.real food is no longer available for normal people. 2. Women- of which you are- are being reduced in value and personage. Men now wear costumes and claim to be just like you. If you have to pretend, it isn't real. 3. Children, who are unable to understand human sexuality- are being indoctrinated by schools, to such an extent that we face a population implosion in a few more years. Children should be protected from wierdness, not mutilated by wierd adults. 4. Freedom of Speech has been eroded to such a degree, that soon things like this posting I make- which is opinion - will become illegal. Opinion....illeagal... 5. Democrates INSIST on ENDLESS WAR...when was the last time we were not in a war somewhere? 6. Boarder crisis. Democrats Fault. ....so no, I am not going to be watching your channel. You wont like my post because its political. I don't like your art for the exact same reason. Park it, or go without viewers.
Thank you, Lauren! I found a vintage vulcanizer and wondered how to use it. Your tutorial is very helpful. I'm looking forward to watching your other videos to learn much more. A+!
12:29 nicely done, but this requires a professionally equipped jewelry workshop. In Europe they only sell silicone for higher temperatures to industry and not to private individuals.
Great video..thank you! I remember one of my fellow students making a mold of my husbands wisdom teeth with this method. It "cooked" the teeth lol...made a weird nasty stink, but it worked! I still have wax copies of them.
Thanks for the video, Lauren! It's so cool to find my old college teacher on here at a time that I am finally getting my studio put together to do small scale metal casting! I was your student for a couple years around 2010/11.
Would the title Professor be as in French usage, or the holder of 'a chair' in a Chartered University. Definitions 'across nations' can be so confusing!
Hi there! This video has a lot of good information in it, and I knew none of it before, thanks. I wonder though, why do you continue to cut and separate the two mold halves from each other -- it seems that if you stopped after you got past where the piece was and left the rest intact you would simplify alignment later. IT would also be great to see you use the mold and make a piece with it.
Hi. Very informative video, well done. I'm curious if you'd share links to where we can buy/obtain the materials and tools you used here, such as the vulcanizer. Is a tire repair vulcanizer suitable for making small rubber casts?
Love this video! I'm looking to buy a wax injector and found a similar used Rey on eBay. I've done some searching and it seems like this brand may not be made anymore? I'm curious if or how you get replacement parts? It seems like a good machine, but I would hate to buy one and then not be able to fix any issues that may come up down the road. :)
Thanks for the great video! I have resin and silicone experience and recently got a resin 3d printer. What are the chances I can get a good wax pour into a silicone mold without a wax injection machine? There are so many things I need to buy to get over the hump into lost wax...
