What is your preferred method of making the masters?

@@OccasionalRelated all zona papers wet hand sanded on granite coasters. Each grit gets their own coaster so that there is no cross contamination. Sanded in lines to target sand the edges (circles make no sense on uneven surfaces). Every set gets a different count for each face once I'm past the first (green) grit. Never set a number for each and every set, everyone uses different resins and support material options. I end each with with several ovals to help reduce micro scratches. Between grits i rinse the faces and between the numbers with a water pick. Oh, also make sure your zona papers are taped on with paintets tape because if you use clips and sand too far on the edge of the papers you can chip them on clips.

if you 3d print your masters, why not print some d4's without numbers to use as keys? put them near the edge for the first silicone pour, then remove them for the second pour. you get some perfectly smooth keys with built-in draft angle and no cutting or risk of flashing.

@WyvernTyrant 3 ай бұрын
Because inner keys are harder to visually seat than outter keys, outter keys are superior because you'll know right away if they aren't seated. Also to make this process take less time and materials i cut the keys manually. It also gave me an opportunity to demonstrate what that process looks like in greater detail that nobody else has done because i found all the existing tutorials to leave a lot of information out.

i’m going to try this out once i get a pressure pot! i’ve done lots of open casting with resin but nothing like this. the only change i’ll make is using transfer tape (for decal application) instead of packing tape. it’s cheap and comes in a variety of widths and tacks if you’re ever looking to change up that part of your process! thanks for the concise tutorial!

The second time you put vasoline on for the cap before the second pour of silicone… Are you doing the face and the numbers of the dice or just the faces but not the numbers?
@WyvernTyrant
@WyvernTyrant 5 ай бұрын
Not the numbers, just the general border of the cap faces. You don't want it to lump into the numbers edges because it can potentially cause number distortion when casted that way.

Great job friend. I've been doing this a while and have come to many of the same conclusions you have with your dice molds . Do you do full set molds for any specific reason?
@WyvernTyrant
@WyvernTyrant 7 ай бұрын
Thank you! Individual molds take up more room in my pressure pot, uses more silicone, and due to the weight of the lid being less i find them harder to self seat correctly. Full sets are also faster for me to crank out. If numbers pull on one dice, the rest are probably on their way anyways.

This is a great tutorial. In depth, but still presented in an accessible way that I'm sure anyone can follow along for making their first silicon mold. It looked like you had lots of extra resin after filling the mold for the first time, did you fill some other dice molds at the same time or do you have another way you like to use up excess resin?
@WyvernTyrant
@WyvernTyrant 10 ай бұрын
Thanks! I forgot to mention this! I tend to slightly overshoot because most of the times when mixing silicone if you didn't do a good job of mixing the unmixed portions usually end up on the bottom of the cup. So i end up with a little more that i hadn't poured, this gives me a safety net just in case. May waste $ but i look at is as insurance :p

@@ericness9660 cool! On single dice molds like that i would suggest no more than 3 keys cut because I've found the smaller ones to be trickier for some reason, possibly due to the weight of the lid not being enough.

Absolutely great tutorial, nice and detailed and thorough, pacing is good. I cannot think of any detail or caveat you haven't covered. Different angles of light is a great addition. There's no extra information anyone could need though dragon skin has a post cure process involving the oven. That said I'll include some extra stuff 'coz you know me.. What I do is use two layers of Painter's tape, one along X and Y axes. I line the edges up so the entire surface is flat as possible. It is a little firmer than packing tape. Putting some tension on the silicone can help to cut it more smoothly. I'll actually use oven cured yellow Fimo clay to make keys, and put those in the initial pour. I'll put the moulds on the table and put the PVC pipe over the top for the lid, but that does risk getting stuff inside the original cast more. You can use plain talcum powder (and maybe a fragrance) instead of Vaseline. Use an air brush to blow excess dust off your dice. None of that is to detract from a fantastic and informative video.
@WyvernTyrant
@WyvernTyrant 10 ай бұрын
Thanks, great ideas! I like my tape for the extra grab it gives me more i can get away with. I don't add tension to the silicone because it distorts it slightly, i prefer to ease it in and glide it. Talcum powder is cancerous and hard to keep from getting messy so i don't want that around my room 😬
