I love the new test shapes. They look like chess pieces!
I really enjoyed seeing you use a Resin Printer to make your slip molds. Thank you!
Any chance you could share any links to the work of the mold-maker you were mentioning in this video? This looks so straightforward compared to so many other videos I’ve seen before! Thanks!

@@hannahklein1843 Thanks very much!
Will you be selling your molds. These are great looking test tiles.
I love the combination of 3d printing and slipcasting, but haven’t thought to do test tiles, will have to try - thanks. You probably already know, but you can try 3D printing the finished item and make your moulds using clay and cottle boards, which will allow you to maximise the size of the items you can cast from your 3d prints. IKUKO on youtube has some wonderful videos on making and pouring moulds for inspiration.
Yeah, that's definitely a way to get more from a single print. As I said in the video, that sort of mouldmaking is a skill I don't possess or want to put the time into though. By printing the mould design, you bypass that entirely.
Try Smooth-On brand silicone. They have a line called Dragon skin that a lot of resin casters use. It cures fast and is super durable. Also a simple mold release agent will act as a barrier between the resin and the silicone (if you forget to get tin cure)
Mold Max 40 is a Smooth-On silicone
Fair enough.
You mention the use of a reasonably priced resin printer but not the brand. Doing a bit of Google research I'm wondering if you were refering to the Elegoo Saturn 8.9" printer? Thanks!
do you have a us link for the 50 ml containers that you dip your tiles into? Very excited to try this!
Are the inserts you put into the mold that create the hollow inside the test "tile"?
If you're asking what I think you're asking, no. The hollow nature of slipcast pieces comes from the slip solidifying from the outside inwards. The longer the cast time, the more solid they are
Why would I have answered the wrong question if I thought I knew what he meant? And you're welcome to try and see if you can release the print from the plaster if you want to do it that way, but this design has overhangs.
Wow, can't believe Seth Rogan is following you!...well...I can... you're brilliant
Why can't you just use the silicone to slip cast in?
Did you also get a vacuum pump to de-gas the Mold Max-40? I am contemplating doing this myself, but I don't have a vacuum pump which is recommended for Mold Max-40.
I already had the vacuum chamber, so that wasn't an issue for me. I don't think it's essential though, I don't get a huge amount of bubbling when putting it through the vacuum chamber and the way you pour can do a good job of removing bubble anyway (as I understand it).
By pouring slowly from a greater height, the silicone is pulled into a much thinner strand and the air bubbles are removed at that point.
Don't know how I missed the video until today! Great looking test monoliths! I just cut a clay gun di so I can press out test ribbons and I thought THAT was exciting... 😂 Nothing as beautiful as these though!
Great video, always wanted to try combining these techniques. I used to mess about with resins and silicone molds in the past and a company called Easy Composites are pretty switched on for all info on compatible materials etc. reinforced ‘glove molds’ can keep the volume of silicone down but takes a bit of practice. Really enjoy your videos, cheers.
Great description of process and considerations of cost. Those would be very cool pillars in a miniatures gaming set up.
There are some amazing tutorials on math per mold making and casing by vantiki on a series he called tiki technical Tuesday.
Would you consider making test tiles for other potters, cast a snot load of cone 6 most common clay body, most common cone ten stoneware too. In your country just ask valentines which clay body sells the most at those temps. Maybe school cone 06 too?
which model of Anycubic printer is that ? I will buy it but can't decide which one is the good one.
Fantastic! Do you remember how much silicone it took to make the master mold? Thanks
Van Tiki in his own world, so is Curt and so are you, comparing any of you is unfair to be honest.
Thanks! I can't remember exactly what I said about those two in this video, but I absolutely don't expect to be anywhere near their level at what they do. They've spent so many years testing and refining their processes, and I'm just glad they share so much that I can skip over a lot of that testing myself
