Anglinarcher Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Alumilite Vacmaster 50 is an excellent option. It has no flex to it, like a CNC machined aluminum mold, so if your design has undercuts it is NOT a good idea. Alumilite HS2 works, but it is the softest I would use for a hand injection mold. Better yet would be HS1 or Quickset, or in the Platinum based silicones Trans 40 or Plat 55. With what you are showing, I suggest that the Plat 55 or VacMaster 50 would both work just fine. Here are some video links that might help. http://www.makelure.com/store/pg/54-How-To-Videos.aspx http://www.makelure.com/store/pg/54-How-To-Videos.aspx#prettyPhoto/5/ http://www.makelure.com/store/pg/54-How-To-Videos.aspx#prettyPhoto/23/ http://www.makelure.com/store/pg/54-How-To-Videos.aspx#prettyPhoto/39/ http://www.makelure.com/store/pg/54-How-To-Videos.aspx#prettyPhoto/43/ Good luck and let us know if you have more questions.
