Stuart, if you use a Vacuum machine you can "cook" the silicone and you will no longer have air bubbles.

@dariob.2547 degassing chamber? I do have one, but these bubbles come out from the plaster. I mostly use faster setting platinum silicones nowadays and don't have this issue any more. Each layer sets up in about ten minutes.

Was there any particular reason as to why you chose to brush on plaster, as opposed to using plaster bandages?

@stuartbray 20 күн бұрын

@hardiehardley plaster is cheaper and much stronger. You can use bandage, but it tends to be for more temporary things which won't be used mutiple times.

@hardiehardley Ultracal 30 was the gold standard there, otherwise switch uo to an acrylic plaster combo like Forton from Smooth On.

These are great, I'm printing molds for my silicone medical task trainers as I'm listening to this. Being able to make the molds in Shapr3D and Nomad Sculpt has been a game changer. The ability to rapidly prototype changes without having to physically make new molds is amazing and saves so much time. Simply make the change and print a new mold. So much fun!

@@lifeholdstrategic Thats great to hear. I worry that we spend a disproportionate amount of time being excited by the digital tools, so it’s nice to hear that someone is using them and still listening to us! We are looking at more traditional things next, because it’s still just a tool, and the tool kit is extensive in the workshop as you know.

I use sil blend by. Nimba. All the silicone colors seem to affect the consistency of the product. Basically ruining it. Would flocking powder be a better option.

@stuartbray Ай бұрын

@@venom7774 In what way does the pigment ruin it? What brand of silicone pigment are you using? Flocking can work, but will gradually thicken the mixture as the proportion of fibres increase. For these thickened silicone pastes like 3rd Degree, Sculpt Gel etc. this is no bad thing. Curious to see how the silicone pigments you have used are ruining the material.

@venom7774 Ай бұрын

@@stuartbray Neills. From British company. Just ordered kryolan to try that. I tried flocking and oh boy that was incredible. Thickened in a good way. And did not change the consistency. Blue flesh n RED especially are amazing. The silicone mix I mentioned is supposed to blend out seamlessly. I also learned to try gamsol to blend out edges even better. Any ideas about a SEAMLESS blend. The pigment neills just destroyed the consistency of the mixture. Stupidly I bought. A 6 range color of bottles. But I’m learning. Try one and see how it goes first.

@stuartbray Ай бұрын

@venom7774 it's definitely silicone pigments and not urethane pigments? Flawless blends are best with appliances made with cap plastic encapsulant barriers. With silicone pastes, the trick is to drag the still unset paste out to a fine edge before it sets and thickens. I'm curious how a small amount ifbpigment shoudk have such a catastrophic effect on the material. I've used those pigments for years with no issue. You can email me pics of the results if you like. See if we can figure out what went awry. [email protected]

What type of beeswax spray do you use? Is it straight beeswax with a propellant, or a furniture polish with beeswax as the main ingredient? I want to get some, but hope you’ll have a sec to reply. :)

@stuartbray 2 ай бұрын

This is Mac Wax, specifically a wax based release agent in a can. I find this is curiously harder to find outside the US. It ist a wood polish spray, but in a pinch i suppose that may work, but the spray is a fine mist and designed as a mould release in the UK.

@shahindezfouli5108 they do sell cosmetology practice heads, but ideally, you want something anatomically correct and the right size. Often, these things are not quite right. There are mask sculpting armatures, most effects suppliers sell something along these lines. Costs and shipping will depend on where you are in the world.

@@shahindezfouli5108 @shahindezfouli5108 does it have to be plaster? Does it have to be amazon? You can buy rigid heads on Amazon, they need not be plaster as that is a heavy material which can break easily if dropped so not a likely material for a supplier of head armatures. Fx suppliers do sell head form armatures. If you can't use those, then try amazon.

@@shahindezfouli5108 they are not likely to be silicone. My understanding is you need a rigid head to sculpt onto. The head will likely be a urethane plastic, many are hollow or filled with a lightweight, rigid expanding foam to reduce weight.
