Out of all the videos this one is the best for beginners. You explained it thoroughly and made it simple to understand and thanks to you my first casting was a success!
The amount of videos ON THIS SUBJECT that I watched in 48 hours and this is by far the best one! You nailed all the grey area points! Well done and thank you
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have a small nativity that I bought at the dollar store, it’s surprisingly well detailed. I’ve tried so hard to make a mold of this, but because of the lantern and the staff, I couldn’t make it work this two-part mold, is a godsend, and so are you❤️
Like the other comment, I thought this was fantastic. You were clear, concise and straightforward, and took the time to explain every step. Thank you so very much.
FANTASTIC... 28 YEARS AGO I LEARNED THIS TECHNIQUE. AND TODAY I HAVE PROFESSIONALIZED MYSELF IN THE SUBJECT AND HUMBLELY TEACHING FOR FREE ON MY CHANNEL... PEOPLE THIS CRAFTSMANSHIP OF MAKING SILICONE RUBBER MOLDS. THANK YOU FOR THE NOSTALGIA. THANKS PARTNER
Genius, one of the most helpful vids I've ever seen on RUclips. I'm a casting beginner and this is way better than how I was gonna try to make my molds. Thanks so much!!
Very well presented and detailed, probably the best 2 part mold making/Casting tutorial I've seen. I use this for my plastic model kits usually to make up missing or broken pieces, I literally mold the entire sprues/runners and keep the copies in the original box for use later as I get many incomplete kits from estate sales and such. Your method is spot on to mine except now I might try the brand you are using. Great video Victoria!
@Victoria P., This is the fifth video I watched. The others were made by professional craftsman, and this video was the best. Clear and Simply process. I"m going to use your video first to make a two piece mold.
Dear Victoria! Congratulations on this video - very informative and helpful, you sure know what you are doing. And it's a rare thing to see someone knowing how to pour liquid out of cubic container without jumping and waving of the liquid. And the double mix! Not many tutorials shows the importance of this step. Warmest greetings! Dominik, sculptor from Poland.
This is my favorite explanation/demonstration that I’ve watched thus far. It’s my second time watching and I plan on referring to it when I make my molds. Thanks for this!
Being a Film Gun supplier, we have up to now relied on outside Replica casters ( Hard Fibreglass and Soft Rubber Stunt Items.) Its good to have a Tutorial on DIY silicone mould making. Furthermore, I would make a Plywood Frame around both Mould Halves ( Cope and Drag) to prevent damage in Handling. Just got to find the Components here in Australia.
You did an amazing job explaining and demonstrating. Just wow! Every single second of this video was necessary and useful information. I totally understand the process. Thank u!!
Wow! This was the most thorough tutorial I’ve ever seen! You did a fantastic job explaining each step in your process and providing the Why/what/how to support! They turned out amazing! Thanks for sharing ❤
Wow! So many “little things” I’ve missed, but make a HUGE difference in the outcome! Thank you so much! I’m sure my crafts will appear more “professional” as well! P.S. thanks for the handy app for determining the amount of product needed!
Wow, you’re really good. Thank you for sharing. Learned it all, so to say. Thanks for explaining clearly and concisely. I’ve got some pet projects to complete now.
Very good and simple. I'm gonna try this exact method with same products doing a 1/4 scale human figure sculpture made of paper mache. It will definitely be more complex.
Outstanding quality of the final result and even better detailed step-by-step explanation with a nice soft voice (every other casting video sucks in all these areas).Subscribed!
i love this so much. Would this process work for something concave and thin ( 1/4 inch) like a helmet visor? I want to resin cast a sci-fi style visor from a 3d print.
You have prepared a wonderful video. Thank you because you said and showed everything simply but very precisely. please, can you help me: can I use vaseline instead of "ease release 200"?
Oh my goodness! I tried watching another video prior to this and he really just had me rethinking everything. ( I do not mean to be negative about another person, but he really liked the sound of his own voice) But then I found you! You explained everything so very well and had each step indicated that was important. So thank you so much for making this and sharing your talent! Your bears are really great. I am going to attempt to make a missing piece of a one of a kind chess set, wish me luck!
Hey girl.... thanks so much for your video! Very informative.patient and showing and telling all the important stuff!! Im very confident after watching your video! Now im going to try mine ou! Wish me luck! Thanks again for your help
please, one more piece of advice: the model for which I want to make a model according to your tutorial is made of wood. how can I protect it before work? is it enough to varnish it with acrylic varnish?
She should be using platinum-cured liquid silicone with a lower viscosity. If you use tin-cured silicone or higher viscosity, it is recommended to vacuum degassing, otherwise there will be a lot of air bubbles.🚩🀄

Thank you ☺
Great job, Victoria! Thank you for taking the time to make such a thorough and informative video. Thanks to Smooth-On also for making it easy.

I just recently overheard someone talking about Rowe Advanced Materials, in AU!
Love your straightforward and super-clear explanations:. Very good on using time efficiently for the viewer. Much appreciated.
You did an amazing job explaining and demonstrating. Just wow! Every single second of this video was necessary and useful information. I totally understand the process. Thank u!!
Thank you so much!
You make it sound easy. I may have to try making molds again. FYI: That glass bear is a vintage Fenton Bear. I have a collection of them.
Wow! This was the most thorough tutorial I’ve ever seen! You did a fantastic job explaining each step in your process and providing the Why/what/how to support! They turned out amazing! Thanks for sharing ❤

brilliant video taught me everything i needed to know about two part mould making
Oh my gosh, thank you so much. I watched so many other crap videos before I found you. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! 😊
Excellent video, This will be of great help with my mold-making project - Jayme
👍
Take your time every time! You did an awesome job!
This is great. Thanks for this. I plan on making a silicone mold out of a 3D print which I then want to use for lost wax metal casting.
Go for it!
Wow! So many “little things” I’ve missed, but make a HUGE difference in the outcome! Thank you so much! I’m sure my crafts will appear more “professional” as well!

This tutorial is so well done and professional
Wow, you’re really good. Thank you for sharing. Learned it all, so to say. Thanks for explaining clearly and concisely. I’ve got some pet projects to complete now.
Was not watching the video as I was doing my own thing with some resin when you pulled it out of the mixing cup, scared the hell out of me! 😂
Thank you for taking the time to do this video. Very informative and well done.
Wow! Great tutorial!
Thank you for this easy to follow tutorial.❤️❤️❤️
You’re welcome 😊
Wow looks easy! Great instructions!
Very good and simple. I'm gonna try this exact method with same products doing a 1/4 scale human figure sculpture made of paper mache. It will definitely be more complex.

Thank you so much for your easy tutorial, cant wait to try this with my many projects ahead.
Very nicely done and helpful
Sweet thanks I can’t wait to start making silicone things
Fantastic video! Could I use this technique for a small 12" cardboard/paper mache animal head? Thanks.
i love this so much. Would this process work for something concave and thin ( 1/4 inch) like a helmet visor? I want to resin cast a sci-fi style visor from a 3d print.
Terrific demonstration.
Great Video !
Good work there!
Thank you very much!
That was beautiful and thank you!

I found this video very helpful in moldmaking
Outstanding video!! Very clear and informative- Thank you 😊
Extremely helpful information. Thanks for sharing. Just my 1 cent
Always appreciate the good work 👏
Great video!
Really well done video
Good craftsperson!
Brilliantly done. Thankyou...
Thank you ☺
Hey, Thanks for the great tutorial. Can I use this same mold technique for resin casting?
Excellent instructions
You have prepared a wonderful video. Thank you because you said and showed everything simply but very precisely. please, can you help me: can I use vaseline instead of "ease release 200"?
I know some people mix Vaseline with mineral spirits as a release when casting silicone into silicone, but I do not know how it works against resins.
Thank you for the good explanation 🙏
You can fill the mold with water and measure that to find the volume also
What a great step by step, thank you!
Thank you for the tutorial!
Will the silicone withstand very hot temperatures like melted glass or melted sugar?
This silicone can withstand temps up for 450 degrees F. So not melted glass but probably yes on melted sugar.
How did you not get any bubbles in the casting? Did you skip the step where you removed them with heat before pouring?
Really well explained. Thank you!
Thanks!!
Thank you for the video. New at this and your instructions are great.
Oh my goodness! I tried watching another video prior to this and he really just had me rethinking everything. ( I do not mean to be negative about another person, but he really liked the sound of his own voice) But then I found you!

I am going to attempt to make a missing piece of a one of a kind chess set, wish me luck!
You got this!! (I notice you posted 2 months ago, how did it turn out?!!)
Excellent video. Thank you.
gracias, el resultado es muy bueno.
Awesome! Really helps me do my Summer Project (Action Figure building!)
Really helpful great video thank you
subbed cuz you said "hyperspeed", and you're a smooth-on channel.
very nice work
Thank you for sharing!
Great Step by Step Video! TY
great video full of info thank you
Thank you!
Nice job
Can I make candles using silicone and this mold method ??
yup! A silicone mold will work for casting melted wax.
Thank you ! Looks great
Glad you like it!
خیلی عالی. شما واقعا یک هنرمند هستید. ❤
Thanks for sharing ❤
really impressed
Thank you so much!
I’m actually half way through attempting this. First half of the mould I did last night and is currently setting 😊.
Hey girl.... thanks so much for your video! Very informative.patient and showing and telling all the important stuff!! Im very confident after watching your video! Now im going to try mine ou! Wish me luck! Thanks again for your help
You're welcome!! Good luck! 😆
Thank you!! Great tutorial!! ❤️
I have that same exact glass bear!!!!
We must have the same exceptional taste in glass bears! 😉
I didn’t see a step
where the hole was added to pour the casting product. Did you just cut away some of the silicone?
please, one more piece of advice: the model for which I want to make a model according to your tutorial is made of wood. how can I protect it before work? is it enough to varnish it with acrylic varnish?
Thx for the inspiration !
How would you do a mold of a mug? Where you have the space where the liquid goes, would you pour silicon into that space?
I love this 😀 ❤️ 😍 💗
I want to try 😋
Dooo it! you got this!
I love this video so much!
Thank you!
Excellent!
We don't have to De-Gas the silicon mixture before pouring into the mold?
She should be using platinum-cured liquid silicone with a lower viscosity. If you use tin-cured silicone or higher viscosity, it is recommended to vacuum degassing, otherwise there will be a lot of air bubbles.🚩🀄
Some silicones do require degassing, but the Mold Star line is a low viscosity silicone that does not require degassing! Hope that helps!
@@linhuiming Yup. Mold Star is a lower viscosity line of platinum silicone, perfect for those without a degassing chamber.
If you make a model out of clay, do you spay it with release before pouring silicone over it?
How hard is, the model? I like the fast curing, but need something rigid.
