BJ demonstrates how easy it is to use the game changing Blue Stuff molding bars to replicate parts.
This is useful when you want extra parts for modification, scratch building or making a replacement broken part from a spare you have.
Blue Stuff sticks is a new generation of thermo plastic molding material which can be reduced to moldable conditions by immersion in hot water for a period of 3 minutes.
It will allow you to create an instant mold of any piece you want by pressing the plastic material against the piece you want to have the mold made from. After that, make copies by using any kind of putty, polyester resins or even epoxy resins. Nothing will get stuck. REUSABLE plastic moulding for all levels.
New improved formulation that will allow you to have better details since the plastic will remain more time in soft state.
The bars are reusable and will last forever.
Dimension of each bar: 5.8x1.5x0.7cm
Weight of each bar: 6 grams

Awesome information in this video although, all I can hear is Korg giving Thor a hobby tutorial.

@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne Год назад

Glad you found the video helpful. Are you saying I sound like Korg?

Magical BJ - can’t wait to get home to Mildura and try Blue Stuff for making Western Front sandbags!

It is magical, John. Please let me know how it works out for you.

I've been experimenting with Blue Stuff molds and Milliput. I've still got a ways to go, but 3/4's of a pack of Milliput later and I've finally got a decent result. I learned that even with a Blue Stuff mold, it still pays to add "channels" so that the Miliput has somewhere to flow. Even poking a couple of holes in the deepest recesses makes a big difference. Without the channels, I get "holes" - actually more like broken corners (I'm casting mechanical model parts) which are damn near impossible to fill in. I'm not 100% sure if it really makes a difference, but I mix the Milliput with Isopropyl Alcohol to soften it; my theory being that it will give sharper detail. I put the Milliput in a bit at a time, pressing it in with a piece of wooden dowel or a toothbrush handle, and build up until the mold is full. One good thing about Milliput is it's got a really long working time. I also tried using a piece of JB Weld SteelStik. A word of warning: It doesn't tell you on the pack, but wear gloves. It chemically reacts and gets HOT. I'm not sure I'd bother trying it again, it has a ridiculously short working time - less than 5 minutes. But boy, does it ever set rock hard. It got me wondering if there is a way to make Milliput stronger, like maybe mixing it with aluminium filings or something?

@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne 2 года назад

Milliput is brittle by nature. You will get better results for sharp details with resilient putties like Green Stuff or better still, UV cured resin. The Green Stuff UV resin works very well since the resin flows into every detail and the UV penetrates the translucent Blue Stuff. Milliput can be mixed with other putties to get the consistency you like.

@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne 2 года назад

Excellent! let us know if you need any further info..

@timothymartin5538 5 месяцев назад

If i understand correctly greenstuff should be more flexible after curing, so i can copy a piece and manipulate is slightly after casting. Does this sound right to you?

@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne 3 месяца назад

Greenstuff does feel more pliable but it is difficult to manipulate after it is cured. Once cured it needs to be cut or sanded to change shape.

@albertomendez5192 Год назад

Is always normal to get the copies made of milliput somewhat larger than the original model? My copies are like 1-1.5 mm bigger mostlty

@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne 11 месяцев назад

Yes, that can happen as the Blue Stuff stretches when you squeeze it around your original. A bit like a loose mask. For tighter details try applying the Blue Stuff as per normal and then dropping the lot back into the hot water. This way you can press against the original and get a tighter mould with less growth of your duplicates.

@albertomendez5192 11 месяцев назад

Thanks! I will try that

@mr.b415 3 года назад

Can the blue stuff be used with liquid resins?

@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne 3 года назад

Hello Mr B. Yes, you can use any moulding material with Blue Stuff. 2 part epoxy putty, UV resin, liquid casting resin, paste putty, plaster, liquid plastic etc can all be used to cast in Blue Stuff.

@stuartdodd7156 3 года назад

@@mr.b415 I would be careful, some two part epoxies and resins can heat up when combined. If they do they will warp the blue stuff mould and you will some to a lot of detail

Hi Brent. Glad you enjoy our videos. Sorry, I don't think there are any more Australian plastic modelling magazines in circulation. I believe ModelArt Australia was the last one and ceased in 2020.

@@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne do you know blue stuff is more expensive than thermoplastic even they are the same product

@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne 11 месяцев назад

Thermoplastic is a term that describes it's function, not the product itself. I wish you luck in finding the exact plastic and use it with success in a reasonable amount of time. For my money, I buy and use blue stuff.

@luuko656 Год назад

as ive said on other videos:Blue-stuff is completely useless garbage! If you use it for coinshaped items, it might work, but for anything deeper (higher) then that, the material remains to hard, even when heated up properly. Considering its pricetag, your MUCH better of with a 2 compoment sillicon, yes; you cant reuse it but pricewise its similar with much better results. Dont spend any money on this blue dogshit. let me know if you want me to post a vid on how shit it actually is.

@HearnsHobbiesMelbourne Год назад

Fully disagree. Blue stuff is useful in many situations. Yes, 2 part silicone/RTV offers better detail but Blue Stuff gives good results without the mess or waiting for RTV to set. Price is way cheaper than RTV. Why don't you watch this video demonstrating deeper items being cast: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8rOS6iggye8.html

Use a Lego framework for better results. Mix milliput with green stuff. Then clamp the mold properly. I’ve got good results but the flash can be an issue for complex parts

@timothymartin5538 5 месяцев назад

@@carlstanford7607this was gonna be one of my questions, I'm trying to cast elements of scenery to use for basing, so larger components. If I can do two single molds (front and back) then join them to get the detail, I think Lego would be perfect thank you.
