Ok I totally 100% get what you’re saying about the two rocks in nature. If they split apart they’d both be positive cuz they’d both just look like rocks. If the positive and negative changed things a little or you lost detail, you wouldn’t know because it’s a rock, it’s not supposed to really look like anything specific. It’s not a face or a pattern. Then that would be a problem. I don’t know how I found your page. Maybe because I cast cement in molds and RUclips suggested it. Fascinating stuff. Love seeing people who are so professional and live what they do.
Thanks for your positive feedback… I really appreciate you watching my video. Feel free to give me a call to discuss how I can train you without you even coming out here. 971-237-2957.
I'm watching videos on making rock molds for my first wargame board and the algorithm runs me into this gem. Thank you sir this is really exciting to see the craft involved with making a mold that is so large. Really cool stuff :D I poured my first plaster mold tonight so it's like a novice looking at a master
Good stuff here, thank you so much! I have experience making molds for model train scenery using plaster. I guess it's sort of the same concept? I really have to try this. I am also a big time lover of ponds and waterfalls. Who knows, maybe someday¿¿¿ God bless you for your talent and generosity. 👏
Great video senor!!! I'm in Modesto CA!!!! I do make Artificial Rock's for living!!!! Thank you so much for sharing your experience in molding,I do mold rocks,but I never thought of making a mold out of mold!!!! Thanks again!! You friend Salvador becerra from Modesto CA 👍
Salvador, I am honored and it is a privilege to be of service to you. It is great to receive good feedback from a peer from the wide and wonderful world of synthetic rock construction.
Just wondering Jim I'm understanding the process but how do you get the shape of the hard mold from a flat table? I understand that you took the mold from nature but how do you create the curvature for the hard mold or am I missing something?
And getting formation from the rubber portion of the mold, you can use the hard mold. It was originally made, or in my case. When I laid them flat on the table, I got an image based on the flatness of the table. I can also stick all kinds things underneath the rubber to give it undulation and shape. It’s really unlimited the shape that you can get out of that one rubber.
From 1 parent to another, kids ALWAYS think they know more then their parents. Little shit's. Heavy sigh. My dad used to have a old cartoon in his shop that said "Hire teenagers while they still know everything!" LOL! I love how cement is made into all these rocks and wonderful things. One of these days I'm going to try it...
Your male and female molds could have some very interesting seismic characteristics. Would it dampen or magnify an earthquake? A footing or stemwall with your mold of a mold with a flexible type of morter joint could give very interesting results. The high rise buildings have a weight near the top to dampen wind gusts and earthquakes.
I’m just about an hour and 15 minutes south west of Portland, Oregon. Feel free to give me a call to discuss your needs 971-237-2957.. thanks for watching
Hi I have a newbie and I really enjoy your videos I have a question probably a stupid question I've got some polyurethane powder my husband works at a plastic company what do you recommendation if at all possible to use in cement... Thank you
I would put it then I’m a developer of different interlocking panel systems but I’m Certainly not the inventor as there have been many before me I just do it a different way
@@fauxrock thanks Jim. Is there any chance we on email as I am actually stuck in thailand. I only came for 2 weeks in March then got locked down as flights got cancelled. Still here nearly 10 months later. My email is biggergun@hotmail.com unless you have WhatsApp. Hopefully I go back to uk next month. Thanks steve
It's nice "art", not that I would ever buy one. Is there a shortage of real rocks in America ? or maybe the appreciation of it ? strange that it is so good buisness, where I come from people wants the real thing.

Do you have a video on casting the original mold from nature?
Yes, there are several videos of me taking rock molds in nature sites on my channel.

That makes me think of the old saying "try it you'll like it"

A footing or stemwall with your mold of a mold with a flexible type of morter joint could give very interesting results.

Not really sure on seismic characteristics of my rocks... Thanks for watching!
By the way where are you located I would love to take your course

I’m not sure if that would work or not… you’d have to try it.
Thanks sir!
Thanks for watching my videos...
@@fauxrock always! Subscribed
thanks for info.
👍👌👍
Is it possible make bike casts using your technique? Would love to chat with you and pay you for your time. Thanks for teaching us. Great videos!
Yes it is possible to do so. Give me a call 971-237-2957
Jim he is the inventor of this panels system wall
I would put it then I’m a developer of different interlocking panel systems but I’m Certainly not the inventor as there have been many before me I just do it a different way
What did you paint on to make the hard mold
We use a urethane rubber to make the soft part of the mold and a fiber reinforced cement composite to make the hard portion of the mold.
Where do you buy rock molds?
I don’t know where to purchase molds as I’ve always made them myself.
Do you sell molds?
Yes I do some holes it’s probably best that you give me a call to discuss your needs. My number is 971-237-2957.
Molds Molds Molds
And more molds…lol
Hi I am in the uk. Do you sell the rubber moulds by any chance?
Steve,
Yes I do... Give me a call to discuss your needs.

Where do you hold classes?
Here in Oregon or I can do an on-site training at your project
Looks like your back is hurt here!
Yes you’re correct... Keep working regardless.

It’s easier to decorate and move around the yard without blowing a nut out. Just one upside 🤷🏻♂️
