Great video, definitely a nice quick way to mold an arm

Burry half of it so just the hand is sticking up in the woods

@Spinocroc123 6 лет назад

Always nice to see more videos! Also, if I want to get a poseable cast, would embedding a wire armature work? or the silicone might be too thick for it to properly bend?

@bitymoldsupply 6 лет назад

You could do that with a Gel-10 hand, Gel-OO hand, or a Gel-25 hand that has been "deadened."

How would you trim it if any bubbles on the hands, just a sharp knife?

@bitymoldsupply 6 лет назад

An Xacto knofe works well for trimming air bubbles.

Hello .. amazing job Can you write down the materials you used?

@tristynevans9676 17 дней назад

About how much silicone did you use to make three models, and can you tattoo on the models?

@bizlur 6 месяцев назад

You mentioned if you wait too long between the mold and the cast, that the alginate will shrink and distort. Would pouring a cast, and just leaving it prevent this? Would you be able to remove the cast at a later time and retain the mold's form?

@bitymoldsupply 6 месяцев назад

Pouring a cast will help a little, but the alginate will start drying out regardless of what is inside the mold. Best to do you casting fast for accurate results. Now, I have used the same mold over a dozen times to cast fast setting silicone and the last pull was noticeably smaller than the first.

@@bitymoldsupply Good to know. Thanks!

@coryjamescooper 6 лет назад

Do not throw that away, it's a waste. Instead, chop it up into smaller chunks. Next time you pour an algenite, use the bigger chunks along side the liquid so you don't have to use as much liquid.

@bitymoldsupply 6 лет назад

Alginate, once dried out, would cause distortion problems if added to fresh alginate as it would pull moisture from the fresh alginate causing it to warp. :(

Brick In The Yard Mold Supply would mulching it work as a filler?

@bitymoldsupply 6 лет назад

Used alginate would probably be best for the compost pile.

Brick In The Yard Mold Supply I'm really interested in mold making for cosplay. Do you have a seller in Michigan?

@bitymoldsupply 6 лет назад

We do ship to the Michigan. 3 business days transit time.

@HomeHaunter1 6 лет назад

Would you be able to post a current price for all your supplies so we each know if this is even in our budget? I don't imagine you used $500 in product but I don't have any idea otherwise.

@bitymoldsupply 6 лет назад

A lot of pricing will be specific to a given cast, but here's the breakdown for what we did here: Genesis V ~$16, Mold tube: ~$9, Gel-25 $28, Pigment ~$.50. All of those prices fluctuate based on the amount of material you purchase so these numbers are probably on the high end, purchasing in small quantities.

@HomeHaunter1 6 лет назад

Thanks.

Would this method and materials be safe for ...more "sensitive" areas of the body?

@bitymoldsupply 4 месяца назад

Yes. Alginate can be used to mold all parts of the body.

@bitymoldsupply 4 месяца назад

Yes. 380 is just a faster formula.

Please what are the name's of the Chemicals you mix in making the mold and it didn't hurt her hands??

@bitymoldsupply 13 дней назад

Alginate is safe for skin and even mouth contact so, thankfully, it doesn't hurt anyone.

A 5"x12" plastic tube.

Not the alginate, but we have several silicones for that. Try 5110 or 5130. Both are well suited for soap and candle making.

What's the biggest mold tube or square etc? Is there like a 4ft one?

@bitymoldsupply 3 месяца назад

Making a poured mold that size would be a profound waste of material. Check out our video library on our website or some of our other Brush-on mold tutorials.

@smallnuts2 3 месяца назад

@bitymoldsupply I will thanks. The reason I ask is, this mold captures detail really well. So hoping a liquid mold you can paint on with a brush can capture the same detail.
