LEVEL OF EXPERIENCE: 0%

 

1.  Even though is not the first time I do molding and casting (I studied Visual Arts), it is the first time I'll try some of the materials that we have available for practicing.

 

2. . The wax milling times are too slow, so when you do yours, do it small, it will save you time that you can use to experiment with different casting materials.

 

3. I designed my model in SketchUp. My idea was to make a small topography.

 

4. Just keep in mind two things, be careful with the deepness, the angle of the walls and distance between geometries, remember, the milling machine and the milling bit have a maximum reach point, they have a fixed size.

 

5. For casting the mold I chose a white silicon rubber, which is perfect for the type of object I want to cast.

 

6. I feel bad for the results because everything was going o.k. The problem was in the mixing, I used too much catalizer and the final mixture was a little unstable.
