walleye4 Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Ok........I got my prototype spoon made and want to make a mold that will look identical. I have tried the Do-It blank mold and can't seem to get it the way I want it. I know some people use plaster, etc to make molds and would like some info on how to do this. What are the porducts out there that I can use to make me a 2-part mold out of. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husky, What is the drying time of the lead when using a Silicone mold? Is it almost instantly like with aluminum?? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Yes, it hardens as quickly as if cast in a metal mold. Here's a mold I made from it that is nearly 30 yrs old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
