Making Ink From Black Beans - Excerpt
In this video, Instructor Emily Endo shows how to make ink from black bean soaking liquid. This is an excerpt from a longer workshop where students learned to make drawing inks using kitchen compost scraps. This workshop was an exploration of natural color using salvaged natural materials such as avocado pits, pomegranate peels, black beans, and onion skins.

Thank you for sharing this info on a video. 😃Makes it waaaay easier to SEE than just HEAR. I’m someone who learns far better by watching.
Yes I appreciate lecture and lab
Would it be possible to make a long oxygen hose out of clear silicone? Really wondering
U kno what el ese is not very pleasant loll u not practicing basic manners w the person that u basically sent to fetch a ziplock bag… and why do y shape ur stuff like a buttplug? 😅
What can I powder the inside of the glass container or whatever? I'm trying to use as a mold.
10q it's help so much ❤
Can you use it on something ceramic
If the ceramic piece is glazed, this should work. If it is terracotta or another form of unglazed ceramic, I would cover it with some sort of release. paste wax or vaseline works well.
Can the silicone mold be put in the oven?
No, this type of silicone cannot go in the oven. There are professional grade silicone products that are heat resistant.
Gelatine for mould making, is reusable.
There are some great videos using vegetable glycerin and gelatin for reusable mold material.
Well demonstrated and very clear understanding step by step procedure. Thank you very much. Wud like to watch more of your video
Has anyone tried to count how many times it can be used such a mold? I would like to make some pieces of decorative brick for myself, not thicker than 2 cm. Can special RTV silicone for molds be the cheaper option for multiple use?
I have been using one mold for a few years. I can’t recall how many times I’ve poured the object, but it works fine. Always for best results use a professional grade silicone like a Smooth-on product, but this technique does great for general, relatively quick, small molds.
Thankyou!!! Great teacher!
Glad it was helpful!
So informative and helpful. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Thank you
We are a manufacturer of liquid silicone rubber for mold making.
Hm?
Hola muy buenas y gracias por tu vídeo. Mi pregunta es la siguiente se podría dar una capa fina de silicona de platino o silicona de estaño para registrar los detalles y una vez curado dar capas sucesivas de silicona acética para darle grosor (?)
I have not tried this, but I would imagine that the layers would not stick together.
Great tutorial video. I want to create a mould to make face details on some egghead mannequins I have, copying from the one that does have a detailed face. How thick might I need to make it? As the face is curved, would I be better off pushing the face down into a tray of silicon-cornstarch putty. Do I need to put straight silicon on first?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Noted about finer details with straight silicon
If you want finer details, I wouldn’t use the corn starch at first. I would use the method in the video. Start with thin layers against the surface and then build it up. If you want the shape to be the same every time you need the mold to be thick so it doesn’t deform while handling. It is a balance though. If you make it too thick it may make it difficult to remove the object.
If you did 3 hand in a bucket how much of each would u need
Quite a bit. I don’t recommend applying this material directly onto the skin. It could cause irritation. I suggest using an alginate to make plaster versions of your hands. Then make a silicone from that casting.
if someone started watching this half way through the show (12:44) it looks like he is making vibrators :)
Best video I’ve watched so far! Extremely helpful and informative. I’m extremely grateful. Thank you! ❤❤❤
wow! so much usefull to the point information in this video! Thank you!
Can you use that on a clear plastic item ?
I watched this as a replay, so I am not sure if you covered it, but will these molds work for resin casting? I hope so because this method will make it a ton easier to make custom molds.
Yes, this will work on resin.
I'm having problems finding corn starch . Only one small box at Walmart. Tried past year and only 5 small boxes . Other stores the same issue .
Could i use the mixture to make molds to put clay in? Ty
ordinary baby wipes cleans your hands easily after working with silicone
At 15:05 mins you comment about the vinegar smell,. Did you add vinegar at any point, ?. Thom in Scotland.
I use Mineral Spirits or Naphtha to thin down Silicon and cornstarch to accelerate setting. You can thin it down to a pourable liquid. I mix in the cornstarch into the thinners 1st to then evenly mix into the silicon to avoid clumping. Someone posted using Xylene as a thinner, I would avoid that stuff as it extremely nasty and unnecessary.
Where's the full video?

Ive seen a few videos like this and they all say it has to be Dawn soap because it cuts grease. I didn't hear you mention a brand. Does it really matter?
In my experience, it doesn't matter.
@@HighDesertObservatory thanks.
Looks like a butt plug. 😂😂😂😂😂
I tried this a couple different ways, they were similar to yours but not as good. The first mold I put way to much corn starch and my mold dried heavy and hard. I made a Froot Loop mold, it worked but it was so hard, some of the wax Froot Loops came out good but it was to hard to get most of them out. Your way seems much better.. so I’m gonna give it a try! Thank you!
Latex inhibits the cure of silicone. What am I missing??
Can the silicone & corn starch mold be placed directly onto untreated wood without damaging it? Or what should be used as a release agent in between? I
This is great. I bought a cheap mannequin and I was thinking of making a face for it. I want to make a mold of its original face but then make a silicone face... and have various breast sizes. I want to dress it as superhero characters for a podcast. I am an extremely poor person so I don't have much money for this.
Can you make a big bowl mould
What do you recommend as a diy to make a arm and hand mold. I want to make a clear resin hand mold.
Did he make a dildo?? LOL
I tried using xylene as thinner for pure silicone and made a bucket full of it. I was able to pour it like water. Have to do it in a well ventilated area or outdoors though. I have also used the thinned silicone as waterproofing and applied it with a roller.
Xylene as a thinner? I would avoid that stuff as it extremely nasty smelling and very caustic. .I use Mineral Spirits (the "no smell" kind ) or Naphtha to thin down Silicon and then add cornstarch to accelerate setting. You can thin it down to a pourable liquid as well. I mix in the cornstarch into the thinners 1st to then evenly mix into the silicon to avoid clumping.
@@xpump876 Lol people use it for all kinds of legal adjacent kitchen chemistry....
Could you test it's heat resistance and let me know if it's still tough against heat
First time viewing, who is 'she'?
Does this method only work with butplugs
How toremb that
Wow! I'll do it! Thanks so much!😊
So what is that object? I just till half of it so far , I guess I’ll find out?
Can I use for chocolate?
I have a plaster of paris mold of a bike helmet. I need to make a silicone mold from it so i can make an acrylic poured mold of the helmet. Do i need a release agent to pull the silicone from the plaster of paris mold? Thanks
Is it food safe?
Did he just make a dildo???
might of been said but why cant you just put silicone on what u want to mold. why do you need soap?
Best tutorial on both methods! I’ve seen some people that do videos on this and told people to use the wrong caulk, next thing you know they disable comments! 🤦🏻♀️
Having made the DIY silicone mould: would you make a video and show us how yr product will turn out: I have never seen anybody make a mould and then take the next step put tthe clay into the mould and product a finished item. All videos only make the mould:
