☽FAQ☾
★What 3d Printer do you have?
I have a JGAurora A5 (they have since rebranded to JGMaker)
★Were do you get your designs for your blanks?
I make them! I use Paint Tool SAI to draw with my Wacom tablet.
I then send my designs off to get cut out of acrylic with a laser cutter.
( I plan on making a video on this at some point)
What Silicone do you use?
★Platsil 73-15 I get it from Brick in the Yard but you can also get it from ploytek
✦Terminology✦
"Blank"- What ever you are molding, whether it be made of acrylic or 3d printed its called a blank.
"Housing"- What ever you are placing your blank into to keep the silicone around it

A lot of great information...thank you for sharing...if you don’t mind me asking what would u suggest for a newbie it’s no camberthinamabob?
Do you ever have issues with curing when it comes to the silicone and resin?
Sorry for the late reply but if you mean issues with the silicone not curing , with 2 part epoxy I've never had a problem with it not curing.
UV resin is a different story though lol I have a 3d resin printer and I've tried a couple of different coatings to prevent cure inhibition but the silicone comes out tacky every time.
Found part 2... :-) I am wondering if you make molds for other people... can you take someone's design and create the blank for them?
I dont do custom molds if that's what you are asking.
Generally you don't want to take someone else's designs and make a mold out of them without their permission, it would be considered copyright theft. its why I make all my designs myself.
@@seyfertdoe - sorry, must be a misunderstanding here... I meant to make the product for the person to use in their own work, not for you to sell (unless you enter a legal agreement to represent/sell for them for a fee/commission) their work as your own. It would be a whole different business. Maybe in the future it would be a way for you to expand.
I do art. Making a mold like that for my work would be an interesting option for me. :-) I would have to know the limits of your creation process to decide what to have you make. :-)
