How To Make A Silicone Gang Mold With 5110F Fast Silicone

In this video we explain the "gang mold" process. We first mold a nut and bolt with a small batch of 5110F silicone. We then reproduce that bolt several times in TC-802 Cast Resin. We put all of those casts in a new mold box and mold it again with 5110F silicone. This gives us a "gang mold' that may be used to produce many of the part at one time. This process pairs nicely with our recent "Master Mold" tutorial.
Bolts and other resin hardware pieces like this are great for creating realistic themed environments and haunted house interiors.
Here's what we used:

Insightful, snarky, and rusty. Great vid man.

Why, thank you!!🎉

That patina looks fantastic!

[@brickintheyard]

It’s a cold patina, and kind of funky. You could even say it’s a funky cold patina…

Really great info on making more productive molds to crank out lots of small parts. 👍

I absolutely loved this video... I've just started getting into making silicon prosthetics etc and this and many more of your video's are proving a godsend for me, in opening my mind into what can be done and achieved with silicon and resin.

Glad you liked it! We will be posting more content on new products soon!

Great effect,
Thanks

Thank you too!

Do you think you could make a video on using computers to create a silicone object from 3D printing to mold making to casting?

[@brickintheyard]

Working on that!
