I like your video and your technique is solid. Frankly from the video title, I was looking for a trick. I didn't see anything here that is a trick, pretty much everyone knows that you can make a copy of a silicone mold this way, nothing tricky here that I can see. Also your workflow uses a lot of silicone to achieve a final mould for plaster. I would suggest making the copies out resin or monster clay, for the middle steps, I would lean to monster clay because if is reusable. I would also use resin for the final mold. I bring this up because silicone is quite expensive compared to other options, also the whole process would be less time consuming. Don't get me wrong, I don't mean this a s a "dis," I am just making suggestions that might be helpful and cost saving.

Thank you very much for watching my videos! I will be making videos using plaster to copy molds. This will be much cheaper, as you rightly noted.

[@charlotte155]

I totally agree with you, I was thinking the same thing👍

[@attilaschannel5198]

I agree. I would have made several copies, and then one large mold.

[@lechatbotte.]

Not everyone knows this. Those who do resin work do. It is simple that’s the point. There are many ways but this is a good way to learn.

[@swarovski333]

Good idea to make a mold of the mold.

Hi, I wish you would put a link to buy the materials used, such as the separation spray, silicone, etc. Thanks❤

[@DoasIDo1]

Hi! I buy all the materials in my city, in a local store

[@KezHandmade]

Wh6 didnt you use resin for making mold casting that would be great and shiny also

[@DoasIDo1]

I will also use resin. I just really like gypsum and working with it.

[@KezHandmade]

@@DoasIDo1 sorry my english is weak imeant to say you have mold the actual mold with silicone so if use resin instead of silicon for like geting the shape and then use it for making molds dosent it be good By the way i love your vidios really enjoyed them even i font work in those things your work is 😍😍😍😍 can you plese make avidio on how we can make molds cutouts without hevely machinery and 3d printer if you can please ♥️♥️

[@DoasIDo1]

@@KezHandmade I don't speak English either, only through Google Translate. Sorry, but I didn't quite understand what you want. Please write the same thing in your native language, I think it will be easier to translate and understand.

Hola. Gracias por compartir.🤗 Queda mejor, queda sin burbujas, si lo haces en dos pasos. Si llenas el molde y lo vacíos, quedará una capa muy fina de silicona o resina sobre la superficie del molde, al ser una capa muy fina facilita que escapen las burbujas, esperas unos minutos y lo vuelves a llenar definitivamente. Saludos. Hello. Thanks for sharing.🤗 It turns out better, without bubbles, if you do it in two steps. If you fill the mold and empty it, there will be a very thin layer of silicone or resin on the surface of the mold, being a very thin layer it makes it easier for the bubbles to escape, wait a few minutes and fill it again definitively. Greetings.

[@DoasIDo1]

Thank you very much!

It‘s simple, but I found out that the rubber silicone is expensive af

[@attilaschannel5198]

you can make your own "silicone" with unflavored gelatin and glycerin. I don't remember the ratio from the top of my head, but you can find how to-s on youtube. It's food grade and what's even better, reusable. Just don't use it on larger projects. Resin heats up during curing and would melt the mold. You can put the project into the fridge so the mold won't melt, but it would slows down the curing time

[@vanerobznavy8807]

What two kinds of silicone do you use?

[@DoasIDo1]

It's all Chinese silicone.

[@ersanaskn8659]

Do you think it works with Chinese thin molds with supports?

[@DoasIDo1]

Theoretically it will work. I will try it soon.

[@haydar69]

Is that food grade silicon?

[@DoasIDo1]

This is not food grade silicone.

[@attilaschannel5198]

@@DoasIDo1 most silicones are food grade

Привет. А можете написать какой вид силикона Вам больше нравится и его производителя. Спасибо!

[@DoasIDo1]

Здравствуйте! У меня силикон на основе олова. Производитель Китай, фирму точно не назову.

[@capatainnemo]

Silicone is expensive, why didn't you just cast 6 owls in the original mould using cheap resin then cast them into a silicone mould

[@DoasIDo1]

Then it would be better to use plaster. Resin in my city is no cheaper than silicone and dries in 2-3 days.

[@kaan.gulbahar]

I don't have a vacuum chamber so?

[@DoasIDo1]

A vacuum chamber is not a must if you are making molds for yourself. I started making molds for sale, so I strive for the best quality.

[@geraldspratley4637]

I made a simple vacuum chamber using a cheap hand pump and some hardware I bought. Drilled a hole in an old pressure cooker and I use that. It works quite well.

[@dalemaclaren7576]

Put your silicone once poured to make a mold in the fridge for a couple hours. Silicone will degas in the fridge. Then bring out and let it sit until hardened and ready for demoed.

[@PIPOXO]

so you mold the mold to make a mold of the mold

[@DoasIDo1]

Yes

[@watchingyoutubeat]

You getting the quality silicon for low price?

[@DoasIDo1]

I buy silicone for 12 USD per 1 kg. The quality is good, but the silicone is a little thick.

[@attilaschannel5198]

make your own with unflavored gelatin and glycerin. I don't remember the ratio from the top of my head, but you can find how to-s on youtube. It's food grade and what's even better, reusable.

[@michel1975de]

Why not cast the owls in resin/plaster and make a mold out of this resin/plaster model? Saves money cause castin silicone isnt cheap

[@DoasIDo1]

I will also make it from plaster, everything has its time.

[@Raymond-cy8xg]

It would be cheaper and quicker to buy another identical mold.

[@DoasIDo1]

Actually, I make molds for sale, why should I buy them?
