When you're making 7 of the item, though, you do benefit from only having to do the silicone mold once. Over time, the cost of the silicone would get spread out over each unit. But if you only need 1 of them and you aren't going to sell them, yeah you're a bit screwed with the silicone mold.

This was hilarious... but uh... you guys do realize that when Alginate is used, you make a plaster cast from the alginate mold and then make a silicone (or whatever material) mold from the plaster cast? obviously this /worked/, but the alginate/plaster casting can help with the bubbles as well as making an easier to work with mold lol.

[@DragonCMNDR]

@@diebosseyyy4904 The alginate and plaster, and a cheaper slower setting silicone that they could have put in the vacuum chamber, might've only just rivaled the cost of the fancy quick-set silicone. But it would have given them a lot more freedom in their work-flow options.

[@childesbigjuicyleftasschee7910]

[@SaberFangs]

I actually really liked this idea. Some suggestions though, if you were to ever try this project again. Instead of trying to directly mold your hand, make a wax cast of your hand first. The kind you make from just dipping your hand in wax. Will slightly take away some of the realism but would smooth out the texture to avoid all those micro bubbles. Also you can make multiple castings so you have multiple chances. Its even a pretty fast process so you don't have to worry about cramping your hand. Then you can save on silicon a ton by using brush on silicone and apply it in thin layers that dry relatively fast. Once you have enough silicon covering it, use a cheap plaster to make a shell. This provides a firm base to keep the silicons shape without over using the silicone. Also to de-mold the initial wax cast, you just have to heat it up and pour it out. I kinda would like to see you try this again, though maybe do it for Halloween. These kind of hand casts could make awesome spooky decorations.

thanks for the tips!

A few years ago, my wife and I made a cast just like this of us holding hands, it was REALLY hard to do as we couldn't make it so we were actually holding hands in the mould, we had to hold hands and then disconnect but keep the exact same shape to our hand when we put it in the mould. Amazingly though, we managed it on the first try and it turned out great! We're not the king and queen of resin though, we just used plaster of pairs and we definitely had a few small bubble issues.

[@whyyes]

For the future, when casting hands/ body parts in a thing other then plaster, typically: 1.you use an alginate mood for your hand 2.use it to make a plaster copy 3.THEN you make a silicone mold of the plaster hand. It will also be less porous and will come out clearer and less ‘bubbly’, and you wouldn’t have to buy the quick mix silicone because the plaster hand can wait as long as you need it to. 4.use material of your choice and get reusable silicone mold for future projects Hope this helps for future projects!

[@de4830]

however silicon before it’s solidified is quite a hot liquid which can mess up the surface of the plaster. also the surface of the plaster is never perfectly smooth as they wanted. :)

[@RamcatUru]

"Maybe alginate is used for prosthetics?" Me, trained in SFX "That is exactly what it's used for, yes." But yeah, you have to cast in it right away before the water seeps out n mold shrinks. I've only ever cast in stone (hydrocal/ultracal) which potential water seep-age doesn't really interfere with. Fun video! Ya'll are definitely trying out new realms of crafting.

[@louisewoods8817]

Would they then be able to use that stone thing to cast in a more resin friendly material (and fix up bubbles)?

[@EvanAndKatelyn]

thanks for the tips!

[@RamcatUru]

@@louisewoods8817 One could certainly take a stone cast and re-mold it using a more resin friendly material. If there are surface bubbles you could also fix that on the stone cast before re-molding. If the bubbles are all internal, however, I would say the solution would be a pressure pot.

[@erenhall7361]

In school we used alginate for the life casts and then filled them with plaster for a positive mold. We use plaster because the alginate will shrink and leak water very quickly and plaster is cheap and cures fast. Greased those plaster bad boys up to make a second negative mold out of either more plaster or silicone. Then pour the final out of silicone or resin depending on the project. It’s a LOT of back and forth but totally worth the end result. Once you have your plaster positive mold you can use a sulfur free clay to make changes such as adding wrinkles, horns, whatever to a face for a mask prosthetic. I’d recommend using a platinum cure silicone such as dragon skin for the final negative mold if you want a resin piece. Platinum cure silicones are strong, stretchy, and can be used many times!!

[@cynnimini2650]

Super helpful and cool tip with the addition, I think I might need thos one day - thanks! :)

[@LifeLostSoul]

This is exciting what I was thinking. Like wait this isn't a make a mold and pore process. This is a 42 step process. But maybe only art school only teaches these secrets. Like cave our of clay, make a mold of it, make plastic positive, make mold with better material, pore final sculpture material. And maybe 13 more steps the bronze sculptor I was talking to I think had more steps.

[@ecamiran4004]

@@LifeLostSoul I wouldn't say only art school teaches these tricks, but you're more likely to have a better grasp of why it's important and the process if you get taught by someone who knows what they're doing vs. first attempt at doing it by yourself.

[@LifeLostSoul]

@@ecamiran4004 So I feel like you highly misunderstand what art school is like if you think it's people with experience teaching people about a process. Because technical process is not taught in art schools really, my most technical class was my puppetry class. It's more about teaching the conceptual. Like they are working artists teaching, like sculptor/mixed media artist teaching a class of photographers, painters, architects, installation, illustration artists ECT in a basic word working and fabric arts class that isn't about technique or skills. No I was mostly making a joke because I'm pretty sure people see art school as a place people don't learn anything useful. Like I somehow learned this and also took a puppetry class.

I feel like because you’ll always “lose” on time, any amount of enjoyment/entertainment in the diy process should also get counted! Even the premise for the series states the “hey, we can make that!” mentality. And just the desire to do that implies that you enjoy making things and diy in general. When I make something whether it’s my own design or based on something else I always enjoy it, get satisfaction from it, and want to continue making things. The time I spend on it is part of what makes the end product valuable. All that said it sounds like this one maybe wasn’t the most fun to make, so it still might not break the tie lol

[@demonovationable]

Guys, body double silicone from smooth on is what you want for life casting. That said, you should do it again with the alginate, you can get slower setting alginate for life casting, and have Katelyn submerge her hand holding the cup. When it sets, she removes her hand carefully leaving the cup inside and then just cast plaster into the void. The plaster will set around the cup and you just peel the alginate off and throw it away. It's cheap enough that it would still cost a few bucks. Then you'd have something akin to ceramic as the end result. Ideally you get a casting that works and you mold it in silicone later so you can make multiples.

I love the human one... seriously. Hands are as unique as fingerprints. How cool is that, to have something so unique as a desk ornament? Even with the cost-- once you have the mold? You could make several. Moreover, it would be simple to re-cast the hand into a wider base with more resin-- I can think of several methods.

"You have a limited amount of space in your house and you should save it for what you really like in terms of aesthetics." I think this is an explanation of the mood ring toilet seat and an example of your questionable aesthetic choices (which I (mostly) love).

haha!

[@abbyroy8430]

Oh my gosh. I almost love the borderline-fails more than the ones with clear winners! I was just laughing so hard when you were trying to argue to the viewer why yours was better even though you knew most people wouldn't like it 😂 (And for what it's worth, I love yours! And most things you make... So we clearly have similar aesthetics. ❤) This video was so fun and entertaining, so thank you for that! I'm not sure I've laughed so much with one of your videos since the mood ring toilet seat 😜

I personally love the hand. But i would have gone with a purple tinted hand with holo flakes an a black cup

“Go ahead and give it a tug off” DEMONETISED!!! I also love how Evan reconstructs the sentence to be less suggestive and still used “tug” 😂

[@ricebeansrockroll882]

...how is tug a bad word?

[@amy3971]

Rice&beans &rock&roll it’s not bad! But if you’re British, it’s used as slang for wank.

[@elvismartinez1303]

@Amy You missed half the joke. "Alright, it's fully hard. Go ahead and give it a tug off". This was an unfortunate choice of words in quick succession.

[@amy3971]

Elvis Martinez yeah I know I heard the whole joke, I was just equally amused by Evan scrambling for a better sentence and it still sounding suggestive.

[@emilyolsen3916]

When I was younger my late grandfather owned a candle company. One thing we did was build up layers of wax around our hands to create a mold of sorts. Once the mold was complete he would pour “cement” onto it, and then we would have cool figures to paint. He also made practice molds out of rubber and would pour...I don’t know why I can’t think of the word...”cement” into them to make sure they were working... it was fun to paint...

[@Dinosaurkitkats]

The “cement” could of possibly been porcelain? lol I don’t rlly know

[@AdventuresinEverydayCooking]

LOL You two... I just cracked up during this whole freaking video. "Just tug on this... " lol

[@haileywatson9507]

OKAY so a few things, a) the moisture in the alginate is what’s causing the lack of cure, as water and resin are mortal enemies. B) you spent so much money because you bought the wrong silicone. If you do that same project with smooth on body double it would have saved you a solid chunk of change and you could have got more product for the same price. C) the bubbles are caused from the jelly because you didn’t clean the mold before you poured the resin. It a mistake I make all the time but cleaning with acetone and spraying a proper mold release (such as Mann 200) will get you a nearly bubble free finish. Keep on creating!

[@catfish552]

You win the Aesthetics on the basis of a *way* more interesting pose alone. Stability could be improved with a base if necessary, and that could hold some LEDs in there to REALLY lean into the ghost/space god look.

The advantage of using the silicone for the mold is that now you can make as many of those hands as you want and reuse the mold over and over again. Maybe mix some colors that look like decaying flesh (green and a tich of red) and make zombie hands for halloween. Also, you could have decreased the amount of bubbles by using the vacuum chamber before you poured the resin into the mold. Also, since the silicone was cured, you could have put it (with the resin inside) into the vacuum chamber and degassed as well. I find your videos very entertaining and the chemistry and interaction that you two have makes the videos worth while. Also, a tip on removing your hand and the cured resin from the silicone is to use compressed air. Spray air down into the mold as your pulling out will remove the vacuum that is created when you pull the objects out of the silicone.

[@xm41907]

You could still use alginate for a fast mold of Katelyn's hand, then plaster it and do any fine corrections of bubbles on the plaster before making a silicone mold of that. This method would also allow you to add extra details into the final mold too.
