Ever thought about reproducing something on a small scale? In this workshop we will make a custom silicone mold and experiment with different casting materials.
Description:
During this workshop, we will make a quick set silicone mold. You may make a mold of one of our objects or one of your own. (Keep in mind that quick set molds are best for making impression molds, not fully enclosed or 2-part molds.) We will learn about and mix resin and A/B epoxy clay to cast in our molds. Different mold and casting solutions will be discussed.
