This video is from 3 years ago...3 years ago the silicone caulk was $4 and the caulk gun was $3... Today the silicone caulk (100% silicone) is about $8 and a basic caulk gun is $20 or more 😢 However....i found a caulk gun for a buck at a little second hand junk shop in my town and silicone caulk still in the packaging for $2.50 at the other second hand junk shop so don't forget to take a look at those places because I've found all kinds of crafty stuff as well as things to repurpose at those places for cheap :)

Terrible, terrible video, my opinion, no hard feelings just constructive criticism to edify. U should watch your entire videos B4 posting them to make sure nothing is wrong with them and u and u dnt have to be a media professional to do this, check the audio and the image and that's it.

When you poured the resin in those, did they come out shiny?

Corn startch instead of soap

Thanks for all information I learned a lot. For your moulding with the plastic mug I would cut from the original plastic mug the bottom off and put the silicon moulding inside. It would hold it perfect together instead of the rubber bands. Let me know if you like my idea.

Clear 100% silicone. NOT WHITE

That picture is so beautiful. U r so very talented

You probably just saved me a ton of money I couldn't afford to spend; but would have spent anyway because making things is my addiction.

Can you use them for polyresin

Looking forward to trying this for myself.

What are they?

You better mix corn starch with silicones. That works well to make a mold.

Cooking spray will help unstick it. It also smooths out the silicone. Just a squirt on your fingers and rub some on your item.

Thanks for the tutorial !

Thw reason you had issues was because the silicone has to be squeezed into the water in a way that all the silicone gets wet It will get too sticky and not cure if you squeeze it on top of itself.

I think that using some oil helps it not stick to the hands, and also some starch is used by some people

How about a heat gun to dry the mold

Very useful video😂❤

Ok i see how to make silicone but how do you make a mold. Something you have already in dip it in the mold

Where are you from i am in Florida.my temp is about 60

What ever happened to you?

Brilliant!😂 And next - Flower arrangements

what is up with the low audio

The whole by the handle of the fawn gun you stick to tip in and it will cut the tip off instead of a razor blade.

Very helpful. Already got my supplies. Thanks for sharing your technique.

Great video ❤

What I liked is you showed where things didn’t work just right and then how you adjusted things to fix it.

Awesome! I bought the silicone a while ago, but didn't know how to make it. Thanks!!

Hoping this can help me make a key

The shiniyer it is the better shine on your resin.

Spent the last 22 minutes trying to read what your left hand says

Silly putty

Very laborious…but easy..

Silicon and Caulk are two different things, not sure why he keeps referring to decorators caulk when using silicone, also he’s pronouncing caulk as cock , the second time he done it I lost interest 😅

There is a circle hole on the top of the caulk gun that when you squeeze the handle, it will nip the tip off. Also, then there is a metal pick in the inside of the caulk gun handle that will puncture the inside of the tube. When you finish your project, just put a nail down the neck of the tip, and it will not dry out! There are little tips that most people don't know!

I'm looking forward to seeing your work with resin & you've given me some great ideas for molds, Thank you 😊

very cool!

The caulking gun has a tip cutter in the handle! I see the puncture wire on the side of the caulking gun barrel!

Hope I can find your video soon thax for showing this I wondered if it would work! TADA!it did !! yeah.......

so what material would you use to fill that silicone mold you just did ? thank you

Hey good video, simple and easy to do. I'll be doing for sure! thanks

if you soap your hands dry first and let it dry, it will help keep your hands clean even if you're a bit short on soap in the water. dawn is also one of the best mold releases for this type of silicone i've found as well.

PS: did you know that the hole by the handle is for cutting off the tip? neither did I! And the spike attached to the side is for piercing the inner seal.

I had no idea I needed a cocking gun for my..

I need to make a mold for domino stands that are 7in long

Try it again with the clear Dap. It reacts differently and has a different smell as it cures. Aslo a little thicker and doesn't come out so soupy.

I restored the broken jar with isopropyl alcohol - everything turned out fine. Small irregularities do not affect the quality😊.) Thanks for the information - the powder is also useful to me for polymer clay👌.)

It is odd thar they put it in heavy plastic !!!!

Can you use caulk with Elmer's glue iridescent and working on how to make a mold out of it any ideas?

I remember a silly putty
