Little tip for fixing the shape of the mold. Don't use just rubber bands! They'll apply an uneven pressure on the mold use pieces of wood or any hard material on two sides of the mold and then apply the rubber bands, then you'll get an evern pressure on the mold which will result in no imperfections of deformed parts.
Good tip Adam
I use paper tape
Yup, even two piece of thick card - just to stop the elastic bands digging in or distorting the corners/edges.
I use duck tape.
Use any hard part. Thin wood, plexiglass, something that will not bend by rubber band.
Next on Plasmo; how to start your own scale model brand.
Lol😂
This is exactly why this is the Best Scale Model channel on RUclips!
It's all of the little details he puts into each and ever model that makes it for me. 👍👍
As an injection mould engineer I must say that your drawings are good and understandable. And you did a nice job with the moulds!
Thank you Plasmo! This is one of the best tutorials on mold casting I have watched. You have me wanting to invest in a vacuum pump and start casting parts I have customized into parts that are not readily available. You always amaze and teach me something each time I watch your videos.
David D is awsome!...for the folks that dislike, well there is no cure for their ailments...whatever they may be....model building requires creativity, enginuity and a lot of common sense....as well as reading the instructions for resin handling....this hobby is not for you if you don't have any sense for using gloves if you have sensitive skin....OTHERWISE....David D aks PLASMO is one of the Best and shares his thoughts, skills and knowledge. and lastly his artistry....WOOT
When you make 2 part silicone molds, try using acorn nuts to press locating pins in your clay. They are smooth and perfectly tapered so that they pull out cleanly and even if you use the water based separators they seem to very rarely, if ever, break. If you are still worried about breaking them, use the water based separators on everything else, and use some petroleum jelly on a cheap model paint brush to paint the jelly on just the locating pins before you pour your second layer.
I have had some items that required a 3 or 4 part mold to be able to get all the details and using the acorn nuts for locating pins has been the best way I've ever found to work.
Also, size the nuts you use to the size of the mold you are making. The larger the mold, the larger the acorn nut. Remember, you only need 1 acorn nut threaded on a 20-25mm long screw to press in all the locating pins in your clay. That way you can afford to have them ready in several sizes depending on your mold. You never want to have too small locating pins.
One last thing. If you have vacuumed your silicone, try pouring it in a very thin stream, starting in a corner of your mold, and allow it to rise up around the part, that way, if you use the fine stream, you don't get bubbles trapped, and you don't need to vacuum the mold after you have poured it. The stream size for the parts you showed casting should never be larger than 1.5-2mm in diameter.
Finally! Now I have to buy some equipment! I followed also your last tutorial with blue stuff.
Same here
The best mold making tutorial I've seen. Thanks !
I have learnt something new. Thank you. I can now build my squadron of Spitfires from one Airfix kit.
Excellent tutorial, and very timely for me, as I am trying to duplicate some plastic parts on an RC airplane. As always, thank you for sharing.
Steve
I can't believe I found you right before I started collecting "Angry Space Soldiers", I saw you making molds for "Bugs" from 2016 talking about blue stuff by random luck. This is awesome.
one of the most helpful and amazing videos I have ever seen anywhere
I'm searching for a video like this to make things ;)
Thank you for the tutorial !
Love ur videos from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Yeah, I will probably try to make some copies of my resin prints.
What Nuke Dukem said. Tin-cure silicone usually works better for copying printed resin parts.
Here's a video where someone experiments with casting copies of SLA resin models. Tin-cured work the best.

well, now I have a plan what to do during summer :D Bless to you Plasmo...
Plasmo, thanks a lot for this great tutorial!!! :)
Спасибо Дэвид за идею создания дегазатора из кастрюли! Это именно то, чего у меня пока нет, но теперь я сделаю такой же и буду лить эпоксидную смолу и пластик без пузырьков!
@@ОбычныйЧеловечек-х2у Я в детстве, в классе шестом наверное, отливал солдатиков из аккумуляторного свинца в гипс, под впечатлением от прочтения книги "Кораблики и солдатики" Рюрика Попова, подаренной мне отцом. Но я даже не представляю, как дегазировать металл и нужно ли это? У меня в детстве солдатики проливались полностью, благодаря газоотводящим каналам на формочках.
Great video, I found it really informative. Looking forward to burning myself on the resin the first time I cast something.
So glad you made a video about diy resin parts. 👏👏. Thank u very much. Will definitely save this one.
3 people hit a dislike because they burned their skin ... slightly
Or they cant understand Rusglish
It now shows ten 👎down. I just can't fathom how this can be disliked !?

Mr. Damek you are a very good teacher!!!
Your video is invaluable knowledge for me as I begin my model railroading adventure. Thank you!
I regularly make silicone mould’s for fishing lures and use Lego to build my mould frames. The secret for making Lego frames is to carefully cover all the joins in plasticine. The silicone won’t leak out that way. Also, I use petroleum jelly as a mould release on the silicone when pouring the second half. Just brush it in VERY lightly.
Thanks a lot. Will try this for my S-100.
He is now making his own materials, legend level
Very interesting process on how to make a Resin casting -Silicone Mold !!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for sharing this with us, I found it very easy to follow and very informative. I have some models I made that I want to cast and your video has given me everything I needed to know!
This is what i need for my latest sculptures! Amazing as always!
Wonderful tutorial - I insert small hexagonal nuts into the plasticine to use as guide pins.
Gotta say,always love your videos.
And thank you for these tutorial
You are truly the master! Been following your channel for a long time, but every time you manage to surprise me. Your videos were one of the major motivators to start building models, and I've learned much from them.
Thanks for showing this. I requested such a video shortly. It is more work than I expected, but it's not so difficult.
Seen a number of videos about casting, but your`s is of a such high quality, thanks!
You always amaze me with your skills.
You are legend mate, you push limits. Keep up the good work
Its fun learning how to make molds, easier with flat parts :)
Thank very much, It was so well explained and I love your accent!
Good job! Thanks for the instruction on duplicating plastic parts.
Really nice video! Two things I found when casting are -
i/ 'Vaseline' - aka Petroleum Jelly, is an excellent release agent for making two part silicon moulds.
ii/ Dusting the inside of your moulds with Talcum Powder - aka Baby Powder [and removing any extra with a soft brush], before pouring casting resin is an excellent way of making sure even tiny details and mould cavities get filled perfectly, for best quality reproduction.
Silicone mold release with Teflon is about $12 a can, you can buy it from your local industrial supply or even Amazon. You get a much finer consistent layer without having to fight with the sticky petroleum jelly.
Amzing well made tutorial! Top quality!
When you will sell your own made Plasmo model kits?!
He is promoting recasting, terrible, now unsubscribed and sharing amongst the community
@@historex54tamiya hahaha you trolling right?!
@@Lord_Dakota it is bad for the small individual sculptors working for hours it is slightly immoral to recast for yourself but if you recast for commercial sale that is considered a fellony and is actually a pretty big crime
it also breaks the copyright law so it is illegal
@@DD-bv9jl The small individual sculptor already got paid his salary by the big companies. You are only taking money away from a multimillion dollar corporation
Seal the Legos with clay or petroleum jelly
If you don't have access to a pressure or vacuum pot, you can reduce some of the bubbles with a thin pour at height. A vibrating table (or other agitating method) can also help.
For casting, some people have used pressure chambers to crush the bubbles. I've never tried it with clear parts, so I don't know how effective it might be for that.
For multi part mold making, I've used silicone lubricant spray
*A full lesson of molding by PLAMSO, cool! 👍 (careful, there is a king of indigo monster in a can which makes so much bubbles!?! 👾)*
Excellent tutorial. Thanks for sharing!
You can make a very good vacuum chamber using a common pressure cooker such as is used in canning fruit and vegetables. Just put the proper brass fittings on the lid and you are good to go. Very safe and easy to do.
Top man , knowledge is power
but without the clear lid it is harder to know when to stop the vacuum, isn't it?
You sound like you're talking about pressure pot, used when casting the resin to eliminate bubbles in resin. Vacuum chambers aren't made with pressure cookers generally
@@matt9736 No, but; they can be. I've done it. If it will hold pressure, it will hold a vacuum. The same principle applies. Pressure cookers are readily available and cheap. A small amount of effort turns it into a vacuum chamber.
"It looks like some alien fluid" 😂 I never thought of that. but it does
Beautiful video thanks so much 👍
Thank you for such a wonderful tutorial. I am not brave enough to try it myself but you never know.
Highest level! Next must be making molds for high pressure plastic casting. Or how to make own decals?
Or just how to make own model brand :)
excellent video, greetings from Argentina
The results are amazing
I love your videos
This guy is like a younger slavic Bob Ross.

We don't make mistakes. We only make happy little accidents.
... you just don't go comparing the genius of this man to another completely different art - discipline... in fact, you are deep water comparing this man... period :)
Very interesting video PLASMO.
Hello from spain
Great tutorial mate thanks! It's the wheels I'm needing to do for a build! This new airfix Cromwell the wheels are wrong so needing to cast my Tamiya ones for it in resin!
God Mode tutorial,thank for sharing.👍
Best tutorial but very expensive to do it. Only 4 minutes and the guy mentioned vacuum for perfect molding 🙃
excellent method, just ordered it- thank you.
Excellent explanation greetings👍
RIP, the King of Random.
Thank you for this useful tutorial 👍
This part does not have enough detail so i make new part myself
He's a madlad!
Love your videos! Keep ‘em coming!
great tips and thanks for sharing
Congratulations! Much better than the result I've got on my video, were I failed on casting the small pieces and ended up cheating and printing stuff on my Elegoo Mars printer (^_^) and I do use lego blocks, it is more fun and I can use some hardware store silicone to seal the gaps.
Togohk was an ad on your channel showing compression moulding. Didn’t know that was a thing. Very fast by the look of it.
Nice tutorial.
Thanks man, this was extremely useful ☺️👍
awesome tutorial!
Very cool tutorial
Thanks for this, very interesting indeed 👍👍
Excellent guidance video, thanks a lot. If you wouldn't mind me giving a little advice, try saying "půr" instead of "pjůr" (pour). I had trouble understanding in context when just listening to the audio. And then maybe just "kemikls" instead of "chemikls". The rest is just pure perfection! :D Thanks again.
Nice done. For connecting parts to the spout can You use also double - sided tape. It is also easy way to do it. ;) All the best for You! ;)
I am intrigued by the idea of casting jet aircraft afterburner exhaust nozzles, would you mind showing that process in more detail? I have not seen any one cover this before.
Great tutorial, thank you.
Hi Plasmo, nice video and good explanation. I noticed you used a vacuum chamber to get rid of the bubbles in making the mold. However, there are some videos that recommend using a pressure pot to pressurize the resin in the mold for bubble free casting. However, I do not see you using a pressure pot for your casting. Bubbles will be created in the resin when the 2 parts of the resin are being mixed and stirring it will cause bubbles to form in the resin material; hence the need to use a pressure pot to get rid of the bubbles. Please advise should we use a pressure pot or vacuum chamber.
Thanks
Thank to this tutorial i am casting too! Still a lot to learn. But thank you so much
the thing that's the most off putting for me is the vacuum chamber - I had needs for duplicate parts, etc. but I won't be able to have this kind of setup in my apartment :D
Really great vid! Will use process in the future! Would be interesting if you made a Revell (?) B-24. I think it would have room for a lot of extra detailing. But just food for thought. Again quite interesting and useful video! Keep up the good work.
That's why resin models are expensive
Exactly
This and the fact that usually they're not made in large amounts. They're easy to make, but require quite a lot of work.
Consider punching a hole from the bottom of the side that's most difficult (like the wheels), and when they're cured, push some air in there with pressure. The piece should pop right out, because the silicone is expandable.
Lol great change of pace 👍 interesting 🧐
Plasmo!! Question? Can you a Tutorial on like... Making Rubber wheels?
That would be cool
@Uswin Wood There's a lot of info on that online already...urethane tires in urethane molds is my preference, lightly super glue your master tire face down in a little conical medical cup. Be sure to lightly coat the tire with a mold release. I like Smooth-On products (Vyta-Flex, shore 40) if you're in the US. PS no need to use vacuum in this case if you stir gently, any bubbles can be released by your breath (CO2).
Perfect, which kind of color do you use?
Excellent
Thanks a lot for your tutorial!!
Besides, could you show us how to cast a Tamiya soldier in 1/35 scale?
This was a great "how to". Any more information in this theme would be very helpful.
When you pour the resin into the molds, how long do you keep them inside the pot to remove the air? Thank you
Thanks very helpful Peace.
Good job.
Cool! Thanks friend!
any chance you'll work on another gundam kit?
I watched many of your videos and cannot help wondering what kind of camera you use to film your videos and is it strapped on your forehead? I am very fascinated and amazed with your attention to details on your model building.
great work 😀👍🏻
Great vid!
I used to do this for a living.
Ok. Just watched you make castings of 1/24or 1/25 scale truck rims of the Dayton style!!!! Where's the video of you building and insanely detailing a semi truck!?!???
We know you have one!!!!
Hi. Do you think vacuuming the urethane works better that using a pressure tank to get bubbles out? Most videos say vacuum the silicone mold and use a pressure tank on the casting resin. Thanks
