Thank you I really appreciate it I find it hard to talk on camera because I'm basically talking to my self and it doesn't feel right to me so that's why I don't talk too much nonsense cheers 👍👍👍
any big items that need molding, I use re-meltable rubber and a fibreglass jacket. I've re-used the same batch of re-meltable rubber for over 20 years now and has saved me loads of money.
I realize this video was awhile ago but I have to say something. The Thing made of cement rock....... Badass!! That is the best Thing bust I've came across. I will do some scouting to obtain it
From my years as a bridge construction inspector, when pouring concrete, large vibrators were used to consolidate/settle the concrete. These were worked into and out of the concrete throughout the pour. Perhaps a, um, personal sized, vibrator could be used to accomplish the same thing on a smaller scale.
I did buy one of them vibrating exercise machines that you stand on and I was going to use that but it didn't work way to powerful it just bounced the model around going to look for something smaller like you said cheers
@@FilamentForge The type in Luke's commercial above was what I had in mind. Seal it in a zip-loc bag to protect it from the concrete. Good luck. Great vid BTW.
That's seriously impressive mate - nice one! I've saved a fortune on silicone molds by thoroughly washing and chopping up old and failed previous silicone molds and chucking those into the new silicone to bulk it out: works brilliantly and can drastically cut down the amount of new silicone needed.
@@playgrounddolls7766 Well, it's pretty much just as I said above: don't throw failed molds or one-shot molds away. Don't throw scraps of cured silicone away - save 'em all up, wash 'em in hot, soapy water and let them dry. Then when you've got a mahoosive mold to make (or even a not-so-mahoosive one, but you're nearly out of RTV silicone or can't afford to buy any more or can't get to the shop), take your "rescued" silicone and add it into your newly-mixed and poured silicone to bulk it out. You can throw in large pieces, or cut it into smaller ones to fit awkward spaces in the mold. The new silicone adheres perfectly to the old stuff (as long as it's clean). Try to orient your rescued silicone to avoid trapping air bubbles under the chunks - maybe wiggle them around as you put them into the new stuff, or pour the new stuff into the gaps between the rescued chunks so that air bubbles are more likely to be "floated" out. You might find that if you've gone for a particular, low Shore hardness (A20 and below) that the chunks - even if made of the same Shore grade - will make the whole mold harder and a little more rigid. In fact, grinding rescue silicone up in one of those hand-cranked meat grinder things (I tried it in a coffee bean grinder and it ended up blowing the motor!!) and then mixing it with freshly mixed silicone can give you a very tough-feeling finished product indeed. And, of course, you can go on and re-use THESE mongrel molds - although that's not something I've actually tried, but I can't see why it wouldn't work... And, obviously, if you're like some YooToobers who mix up a whole kg of RTV and only use a third of it - LOL! - save the stuff that sets in and on your mixing equipment., and chop that up for recycling too. Seriously, I've saved £££££s and ££££££s doing this - loet me know if there's anything useful that I've missed!
I've always wanted to do concrete casting there are loads of 3d prints that would look awesome in concrete the next few builds are all going to be concrete cast can't wait 👍👍👍
Very cool models. Seeing the primer color made me think of lava rock. I was thinking it'd look neat with one done very dark like that with white basing in the cracks over painted with yellows, oranges and reds for a lava glow through the cracks.
@@FilamentForge i m a fan, hope to see another project soon, ( since iv watched your channel, i bought an airbrush and train myself on a 1.72. scale millennium falcon).
If you latex lots of jobs at once it works out really quick. You could easily give 1 coat to 10 models in 10 minutes. And you save loads of time with cleaning the brushes.
Looks great. You could proably put some perlite in that cement so it is not so heavy. Also when I learned casting we used to put what we called a milk coat of 100% cement and water on the mould to caputure more fine detail, and then after that coat had dried up a little we poured the rest of the concrete in. Also we would suspend chunks of styrofoam inside to make it lighter.
I would look into a cement/sand/perlite mix. They make lightweight cement planters and the like out of that combination. Would definitely take the weight down some in future castings. Very cool cast and model all around.
Oh man! Where have you been. It's been a while and I have missed your videos. Love what you have done! Keep it up and we need more videos! You have helped me with my work through your videos.
@@FilamentForge I know the feeling. I started Deadpool's bust (1 foot tall) last year and I am half way through. I keep telling myself to finish. I should jump on it and finish! thanks again for your videos!
Apologies if you've answered thsi question before but I've just found your channel, do you sell your pieces? Particularly the hulk and juggernaut pieces? Thanks
Also a quick tip use a sander without the sandpaper and vibrate the mold releases all the air out to rise to the top then compressed air or blow torch over the top to get rid of them
Did you think of putting support wire inside the concrete? Should help with strength in the long run. And I was thinking that you can fill the air holes with a really wet slurry of concrete. Just a thought. Turned out fantastic!
To fix the air holes I used cement it did the job perfectly I got the tip from a concrete casting RUclipsr and as for strength I think your idea is for structures concrete needed for load-bearing 👍👍
You actually got REALLY REALLY lucky that the base wasn't contaminated from the Latex. In general latex inhibits the crap out of silicone. Like enough that you shouldn't even be wearing latex gloves when working around platinum cure silicones. Really awesome work though, the finished product looks awesome.
Hello there, I found your video because I was looking into ways of 'coating' 3D prints with thin veneers such as stone or metal to disguise the plastic underneath but couldn't find anything substantial. This process seems to be the most effective method of doing so, but I have a few questions: How heavy was the concrete bust? Is it comparable to a normal bust of stone or porcelain or is it a lot heavier? What were the total cost of the process? Have you improved upon the method since this video? I wish there were a magic solution, such as a bronze spray or marble spray which could apply a thin layer but that seems unreasonable! Thanks a lot, I enjoyed it.
You would have a better finish if you were to take a sander and put it up against the bucket or the side of the cast that you are making. Just put the side or the top of the sander against the mold.
You should’ve used silicone for the mold for the head, you would’ve had it finished in a fraction of the time. Although it would be more expensive sadly.
The latex came off really easily it's like an elastic band so you stretch it to get it off and the plaster bandage mother mold was a two-part it split down the middle 👍👍
to get rid of the bubbles I added a little bit more water to the mix and increased the cement and because I reinforced the mother mold with fibre glass I was able to vibrate the model more my picking it up and shaking it
@@FilamentForge With smaller models you do not always need a mother mold and can squeeze it around a bit. Also using less aggregate will make it smoother.
@@FilamentForge I'd prefer a more consistent mix might help with the curing process of getting the air and bubbles out slightly. Burnning calories are over rated
Awesome work again Filament Forge, What will you do with the concrete casts ? I have just ordered my first 3d printer - the Creality Cr10s pro V2, super excited for it to arrive (in about a million years from China :) , and I will add you were my inspiration..... I can see you spend a lot of time and effort with your creations, and it would be great if I could have some way of getting some noobie tips and pointers from you mate. Kind Regards Moe
Thank you for the kind words as for the cast I'm giving three away to my patreons and as for tips best thing you can do if find a RUclipsr that has your printer that has done a set up how to video for your printer and as for finishing prints like painting them you could check out my videos and see if they help good luck with your new hobby cheers
Great work! Just a question: did you consider using a thickener for the latex and/ or silicone to not waste time and silicone? Wouldn’t that be quicker?
I just searched RUclips for concrete casting videos and watched them a lot until I figured it all out it best to search for each individual thing you need to know more about like how to mix concrete and so on thanks for watching cheers
Great video... i want to learn how to do this also... can you tell me how long or how many times you can cast using your mold? also which is better a latex mold or silicone mold? is cost about the same also??? thax
you could get at least 100 cast out of this mold but you have to be carful of latex don't expose it to sun light and when cleaning it just use water no chemicals latex is cheaper but takes longer to apply but is a lot more flexible so you can just pull it of the mold but also the have to apply it in a well ventilated room
Grat process breakdown! A bit odd to paint a concrete model, i thought you were after the raw beauty of concrete. For the current look ,why not just paint the 3d print directly? If you were after weight, you could mix some resin and gravel and fill it in.
I've also knocked the hot-end while doing a filament change, its the worst. I wish the printer would return to a home position or maybe checked its position before resuming. I don't see a technical reason why this isn't possible.
Good job! 👍 I'd say great job if you'd not left out so much of the de-molding. Regardless, *Thank you!* 👍 BTW, I've seen craftsmen using electric palm sanders to eliminate air bubbles. 😃

You need to get a vacuum chamber to get rid of the bubbles.
You should use it both for the silicone pour and the concrete.
a common thing to do is, mix up a thin slurry mix, and fill in the air bubbles

You should cut the eye sockets out of the latex mold and lightly glue some glass eyes into the sockets, those would really pop
Probably could have added some terra cotta pigment to your concrete mix as well and added abit of longevity to the bust
sound good i will give it a try next time cheers
you can use the concrete slurry to fill in the pin holes
Yes but not the concrete just the cement no sand or stones 👍👍

Great Project !! why did you use latex ? is it more resistant than silicon ?
Latex is more flexible and stretchy making it really easy to remove from the concrete cheers
Great work! Just a question: did you consider using a thickener for the latex and/ or silicone to not waste time and silicone? Wouldn’t that be quicker?
I did but it was my first time using latex so didn't what to over complicate things cheers
Looks good, but damn, decoding the head from the 3d print had to be tough, wish you’d recorded that.
If was pretty manageable latex is very stretchy and flexible
It helps that you had a wide base and no nasty narrow bits that can break off.
How did you learn to do this and where can I research this? Awesome project btw glad to see this project finish after a while
Oh also a follow up question is how much did it cost not including the 3d print part?
