Mold Making Casting Complex Parts w/ parting line) - Updated 

Right on time! I am doing some casting and this is the ticket.

excellent video!! People, to work this type of 2 part mold, first you need some experience with one-part molds. there's no point in breaking your head figuring this out as beginners. go step by step. many questions I see here could be solved nefore asking if you practice simple molds first. cheers!

Depending on the type of plastic you are using, you can do either or. Our Freeman Color Tint can be used to die both Urethanes and Epoxies. The Fast Cast Urethanes, Rigid Polyurethanes Elastomers, and Epoxies can also be painted.

@arromazam Well of course most of us are just going to build the box with bits of junk or, if you're really lazy like me, more plasticine, but they might as well show you how to do it so it looks all neat and nice.

Our Bluestar PT Accelerator can be added to addition cure silicone rubbers as a third component to reduce the demold time.

The blue car is made out of Repro 83 Blue Fast Cast Urethane. You can use a wax original to create a silicone mold.

yeah you could also use for a model horse, but you have to really think about where the separation line is so it will be easy to remove from the mold (i.e. if there is a curve on the tail, how would you remove it from the mold)...or you could cast it lying on its side but you would have a more noticeable flashing line

Your videos are really interesting and usefull.. Thanks for uploading!!

@comeasyouare1989 he did it that way to creat the locking mechanisim, to allow mass casting with the same mould.

If you have a model or pattern to work from, you can create a mold using our V-330 Silicone Rubber to create your mold. Additional information on this product and how to use can be found on our website. Our Repro Fast Cast Urethanes may be an option to cast the replicas.

@bigbadbronco86 We, unfortunately, do not have that specific type of video available at this time.

It would depend on the clay. It should work, but suggest testing for its suitability.

It would depend if your mold configuration had greater draft.

@ArtyHelen Yes you can use wax

Just be back by bedtime!

comeasyouare1989 you got it right, this guys just looove to make it as difficult as posible.... for some reason

I'm trying to find out if I can use a wax original to make a silicone mold from. Is that blue car you're using made of wax? Thanx!

@freemanmfg what about casting 1/24 scale model kits that dont have a bottom on the body and the windows are open holes, are there any videos for something like that?

can yu use this method for softer clay or would I have to do it a different way

im wanting to cast replicas of a german ww2 bakelite toothbrush holder for reenactors....any suggestions on how to make this mold? any help would be appreciated

@phookadude Thank you! :)

@xucaen - Unfortunately, we do not have a video to create hollow objects.

I was also wondering how to cast a 1:43 model cars..guess I need to find it out myself..

Unfortunately, our materials are not conductive.

how come they didn't use a catalizer for faster solidification

It is difficult to recommend a product without all the information on your project. We can tell you that threads made with our materials would not be very strong andm depending on the applicationm, may recommend threaded inserts.

Please contact out technical department at 800-321-8511 for additional assistance on your specific application. It is difficult to determine the type of mold needed without additional information.

The original car model was made out of our Machinable Wax.

Is there an email where i could write you? I would like to see if you can guide me doing a mold. Thank you very much

wouldnt be easier to do half the car,then the other half ?

I wouldn't call that complex. That's about as simple of a model as you can get. Find a model that has extensions that form gaps between the main body and the extensions.

Because everyone has the opportunity to machine on a mill. Also everyone molds things that are a simple machining job to make a parting line. What a joke! Stuff i mold needs clay or alginate

this company's technical support line is terrible... seem like they hate their job, no proper explanations given when I asked simple questions.

and that woden box!!!, like it is going to the moon!, c'mon guys, get a life, dont be so wastefull, neither in time or in materials, this is just a waste of life.
