Thank you for sharing this technique. It's really handy to mold and cast small parts on-the-fly. I substituted gelatin with agar-agar. Also you can add cornstarch to the mix to give it more strength.
Excelente video, me hubiera gustado haber escontrado tu video para hacer los moldes antes de comprar silicón líquido y otro producto que es masilla para hacer moldes flexibles y me hubiera ahorrado el dinero jejej, Millón gracias por la idea. De seguro voy a hacer los moldes con tu video. Gracias
thanks! i'm an architect and i make models both for personal works and for other architects, i never made molds because of the excessive price of mold silicones.. can't wait to try this
hola gracias por la idea! use gelatina y hasta 2:1 gliserina y gelatina funciona perfecto se ahorra muchisimo dinero se puede remplazar totalmente al caucho siliconas ! gracias ! gracia ! gracias !
Good video. Thanks to the author! This method really works, I checked it myself. But there are a lot of little bubbles inside mold. The bubbles do not affect the quality of the cast gypsum. But I thing that it is not good, or is it normaly? Is there a method for manufacturing a monolithic gelatin mold without bubbles? I'm sorry for any errors, English is not my native language.
hola, muy buenos los videos pero tengo una duda, tengo sorbitol, glicerina y gelatina, pero cuando la hago no cuaja, que proporciones de cada cosa tengo que poner?? gracias
Nice tutorial. I think this is better than corn starch plastic. To avoid the bubbles pour the mix just on one corner and let it run through the mold without moving it. A funny observation. Don't use your own stick. Kidding. Thanks a lot.
What's the best way to substitute the microwave? Just heat in a pan being careful not to boil? Or maybe put inside a can inside a bowl of boiled water? Thanks
Hola, donde se consigue la glicerina? y la mezclas con gelatina comun? o la que es sin sabor que usualmente se usa para fx make up? Muy bonito el tutorial
could you not also use fiberglass resin to make your castings? or would that attack the mold material? i ask because you can get it in large quantities and many hardware and autoparts stores for a relatively small amount of money. much cheaper than finding an art supply and paying $25 for a quart of casting resin.
hola i just love this but just asking where did you get the glycerine thing pls tell me i need it plz respond anyway gracias by the way i am from the Philippines salamat
Having a bit of trouble. It is very sticky and is tearing a bit more than I like. Is there anything that it will NOT stick to that will not cause other problems. I'm considering a cooking oil but wanted to get your advice first.
"Gelatine prosthetic" U can get the amount of glycerine wrong, if you dont wait for the water the jello first! u get your finished hardness once the water has left not before!
hi love your videos ,can you please tell what diid u use for making transparent medallion and soldier ......is it araldite???? ...i really need to know it for one of my project greetings from India Abhishek
one can't use this type of molding with hot fillings, like, say, lead? can you recomend me best materials for molding and filling for miniature creation?
no, I followed your suggestions, the gelatine is unflavored and without sugar. Mine performs the same as your batch in the video. There is a bit of sticking, stretching and tearing in your demonstration. For what I was trying to do, the tearing was too much. I switched to using clay with a layer of food wrap placed in the mold to prevent the clay from sticking. I found a food wrap that is so shear that the creases do not show in the clay.
I've tried this and it works amazingly well, but I am wanting to make a mold of an air dry clay piece I've sculpted, but I don't know if the clay will melt with the heat, or something like that. Also, I've put a couple coats of glossy mod-podge over it to seal the piece, which I'm not entirely sure, but would that seal the piece from heat.. or not? Thanks in advance :)
and how could i manage to make this molds? what I want to do, is lead miniatures for warhammer, that would be full body miniatures, not just half of it as I see it, it's hard to do
I made this jelo mold and it does work! It copies fine details and it's very strong. I couldn't tear it to re-melt, had to use knife. The only problem is that mine is not pourable, it's a thick paste. How to make it like yours - liquidish & self-leveling? I made it just like you did - 50:50 gelatin & glycerin. Any secret to make it thinner?
Thanks SO much! Do you think this will work for casting concrete? It can be very alkaline. I've been told to use sorbitol in the gelatin and glycerin mixture. Do you know what the sorbitol would do?
Mille Grazie, excellent video. I have just purchased a bottle of glycerine and box of unflavored gelatin. Have you experimented with different proportions of the two ingredients ? And after many uses I'm sure that there is some sort of degradation, is the material restored by perhaps adding a bit more glycerine or must one discard the batch ?
Hola, eso s puede usar para hacer casting? yo pienso q se puede romper por el casting cuando s le pega a al molde . Puedo usar Smooth cast 320 o otras cosas ? You are smart !!!
My mixture absolutely will not solidify, I mixed and heat and repeated several times, in short intervals. I'm using generic brand gelatin (great value) it is the flavored kind but I didn't think that would matter, and I'm using glycerin that I bought at walmart, it's labeled as a skincare product made by Humco. But it says it's all natural. My mixture is kinda gritty but not clumpy, but at room temp its still a thick, semi-liquid. Whats going on?
The wax will melt the gelatine if the wax is hot. You may get away with a certain amount of casting if your wax is fairly cool. Even then you are likely to loose some detail.
Mike Mike Es un poco tarde pero a mi ver el mejor metodo para derretirla sin quemarla (en el microóndas a veces se hierve y no se solidifíca despues) lo mejor que veo es usar una olla con agua hirviendo (mejor si no es mucha agua) y ponerle el recipiente de gelatina adentro. Cuidado con no quemarse obvio.
the gelatine mix was not heavy enough to push the food wrap into the mold and when I used a popsicle stick to push it into the mold, I made a mess of things. Without the food wrap the gelatine had too much sticking - tearing. I'm making a set (14) of two color 8 sided dice for a game that I have invented. The first step was to make the plug from a constructed mold. Step two, use the plug to make a two piece epoxy mold. Now I am using some Mille Fiori techniques to make the dice.
+Daniela Cordiano Lo mas comun es que la gelatina es de baja calidad y no tiene la fuerza de lo mejor. Y tambien a veces hay azucar que no desuelve. Probar un aumento de gelatina para recompensar la falta de gelatina, y si queda cristales, y es azucar, botar el azucar.
You are welcome. As the mold is Gelatin and the jello snacks are also gelatin, I would say you would have problems with the snacks mixture melting the gelatin mold. also separation of the two would also be a problem. Better would be to make a silicon mold.

50/50? But you added double the glycerin. What is the correct ratio?
This is great, I was looking for a simpler way to make a mold and this just hit the spot, your awesome. Thanks
Hello, did you add anything to the mix before to get that skin colour? Thank you so much, it's a great tutorial!
hola gracias por la idea! use gelatina y hasta 2:1 gliserina y gelatina funciona perfecto se ahorra muchisimo dinero se puede remplazar totalmente al caucho siliconas ! gracias ! gracia ! gracias !
ola ya que la has usado cuanto dura el producto sin que se enmoesca?

The intro scared me xD Youre the man!
hola, muy buenos los videos pero tengo una duda, tengo sorbitol, glicerina y gelatina, pero cuando la hago no cuaja, que proporciones de cada cosa tengo que poner?? gracias
¿Cual es el ultimo material que utilizas? La formula no lleva agua verdad solo 50% de los dos ingredientes.
Who is the man? You are. Thank you so much!
Cool technique. Good video, but I have no idea where I would get the materials used.
Nice tutorial. I think this is better than corn starch plastic. To avoid the bubbles pour the mix just on one corner and let it run through the mold without moving it. A funny observation. Don't use your own stick. Kidding. Thanks a lot.
your method is the best, easiest and super!
This would work better than silicone calk for my mold making attempts. Is this food grade gelatin?
Id say it is LouLou!

Hi thanks for your video.....very interesting.......one question please...can we use the mold for food?
Where do you obtain this material? Does it work with molten pewter?
is it reusable when heated again
increíble muchas gracias por hacer este estupendo tutorial
muchas gracias por el tu es genial espero hagas mas con el tema de moldes.
Can i use vegetable glycerin?
You're the man Philip!
Having a bit of trouble. It is very sticky and is tearing a bit more than I like. Is there anything that it will NOT stick to that will not cause other problems. I'm considering a cooking oil but wanted to get your advice first.
Genial! Que buenas ideas tienes!!
That jello works to make masks?
I thought I heard a kiwi accent but I wasn't to sure, must be starting to mix with the Colombian accent :-) I'm also a kiwi ;-)
Can you try cement as a filler?
"Gelatine prosthetic" U can get the amount of glycerine wrong, if you dont wait for the water the jello first! u get your finished hardness once the water has left not before!

Anders Games!
It will melt at high temp. Once I tried to place it under a 100w incandescent bulb about 3 feet below and it meled

hola gracias por tu tutorial esta genial. te quieria preguntar que es eso de hueso duro que mencionas es algun tipo de resina?
Can this be used to make molds of larger objects? And if you use say candle wax would it melt?
I was just wondering, could I probably use aluminum foil to create a form for the mold? I dont have any plasticine.. ;)
if i want to have a mold with two halves what kind of mold release agent should i use?
I've tried this and it works amazingly well, but I am wanting to make a mold of an air dry clay piece I've sculpted, but I don't know if the clay will melt with the heat, or something like that. Also, I've put a couple coats of glossy mod-podge over it to seal the piece, which I'm not entirely sure, but would that seal the piece from heat.. or not? Thanks in advance :)
se derrite al contacto con agua?
Due to the fact that it gelatine, how durable is it? How many uses can it withstand?
a proporção é de 50x50, meio a meio? só a glicerina+a gelatina comum comestível ??????
and how could i manage to make this molds?
what I want to do, is lead miniatures for warhammer, that would be full body miniatures, not just half of it
as I see it, it's hard to do
Can I make soaps miulds
Can you show the other toobs that you where using so we know what to go buy.
cup, stick, clay... improvise.
doesn't the heat from the resin , melt the mold?
Good morning, greetings, fantastic tutorials, does the glycerin can be used used to make soaps? Regards Carlos

Hola Usaste 2 de glicerina y una de gelatina? Gracias
trate de hacerlo pero no cuajo bien ¿que pude haber hecho mal?

And after many uses I'm sure that there is some sort of degradation, is the material restored by perhaps adding a bit more glycerine or must one discard the batch ?
amigo ¿un molde de resina sirve para preparar gelatina ? gracias y muy buenos videos me suscribo :)
can you use this with resin or will the heat mess up the mold?
That's some really neat stuff!
Where are you eat from?
gracias por lo facil que nos lo pones... entonces, se puede usar para decoraciones comestibles?
Pues , es gelatina, entonces que supone no es peligroso. Me imagino, que puedes usarlo para decoraciones comestibles, pero todo riesgo es tuyo.:)
Hola, eso s puede usar para hacer casting? yo pienso q se puede romper por el casting cuando s le pega a al molde . Puedo usar Smooth cast 320 o otras cosas ? You are smart !!!
Funciona para hacer moldes de arcilla polimerica?
Great vid!
el molde esta hecho en partes eguales de Gelatina y glicirina. use plastelina para hacer la forma para hechar la gelatina.
So its just gelatine and glycerine? :D Must try this!
se puede usar gelatina sin sabor? y ¡como lo utilizo para hacer geridas? buenas trades un saludo desde Venezuela :3
Does it work with silicone rubber?
Hi Santa its the year 2021 and came across your video. Any gift for me this Christmas?😂😂😂
Can I use mineral oil?
where can i get some of the gelatine and glycerine?
HOLY CRAP! so not expecting his nose to come off! hahahaha :P

Please brada telme were i kane buy this stafe from thankyou veery mush
Buenos días, un saludo, unos tutoriales fantásticos, ¿la glicerina se puede usar la que se utiliza para hacer jabones?Un saludo Carlos
Si. Es el mismo glicerina
Muchas gracias por la contestación.
like easy cast or ice resin?
You scared me when you pull off from your nose XD
Cool!. Can i put melted wax in the molds or they melt too?
The wax will melt the gelatine if the wax is hot. You may get away with a certain amount of casting if your wax is fairly cool. Even then you are likely to loose some detail.
Te hago una consulta, me podrias pasra algun tip para hacer el fundido sin microondas ya que no tengo? gracias! esta genial el tutorial!

Good job
Where are you from?
Is there a vegetarian alternative for gealtin and can you subtitles for the video or a decrition?
you might try Agar which is a kind of gum they use for doing bacterial cultures in petri dishes with
puede usarse vaselina en vez de gliserina
la glicerina es lo que remplaza el agua en la gelatina para que no se seca.
is this technique suitable for molding chocolate, which is molded at a temperature of about 85 farh degrees?
+francoise veron stamp . No, the jello will melt . :(
thanks. I suspected so.
La proporción es 50/50?? Porque me queda pegajoso y se rompe, además no se disuelve bien. Que puedo hacer?? Gracias :)
+Daniela Cordiano Lo mas comun es que la gelatina es de baja calidad y no tiene la fuerza de lo mejor. Y tambien a veces hay azucar que no desuelve. Probar un aumento de gelatina para recompensar la falta de gelatina, y si queda cristales, y es azucar, botar el azucar.
I'm having a problem with my gelatin mold, it's not as strenght as yours? How long should i heat up the gelatin with glycerine?
Thanks.
You only need to heat it till it melts. If it is weak, then you probably need to add more gelatine.
***** Thanks for your reply. Maybe I'll experiment with 1:2 ratio?
Holaa!! Esa es la misma glicerina que venden en las tiendas de materiales para hacer dulces y pasteles??
es grenetina y si ea la misma por lo visto
Put just a drop of acrylic color into the 2c glue andt it becomes ..
I would cast a 2 part polyurethane resin but it heats up
Can it be used for food eg as chocolate mould
Chocolate is likely to melt the mold, as the chocolate will be hot when you melt it.
@PhilipStephens007 Thanks a lot for the information.
Right away I thought your nose was a prosthetic
Hi and thanks for the info! Do you know if this mold would be OK to make edible Jell-O snacks?Thanks!!
You are welcome. As the mold is Gelatin and the jello snacks are also gelatin, I would say you would have problems with the snacks mixture melting the gelatin mold. also separation of the two would also be a problem. Better would be to make a silicon mold.
Video's great! Very useful, thanks! Am I right, you melted the nose and rest jello in microwave oven?
P.S. I'm from Russia, you speak really fast :)
+banji356 . Correct
If I have a question will you answer and helpme?
