Successful Mold Design and Execution; Keys, Vents and Pour Spouts

Welcome everyone to this special LIVE version of Making Things with Milo!

I'm limited to find resources, is there an alternative to sculptex that you could find in Amazon or local craft store like Michael's?

Hi.😊 Is there anyone who can give me advice about my friction issue. I have a company involved in development of tiny electric helmet wiper. We are facing with friction between silicone wiper blade and visor which is the main consumer of tiny battery in wiper. Now we use 40 ShA silicone refill. I found Smooth -on company have a vast number of interesting materials and its tough choice for me what might be the answer for our issue. If you can help what you will try instead silicone and NBR it would be perfect 👍. Peter

My best friend, thanks to you, I enjoyed watching... I'm proud of you for developing day by day.

Sure you know the answer, how to make a mold for outside and inside, like a toy empty for inside, something like that

Very informative! Thank you!

Milo, what would be the best kind of mold material to use for making food molds?

Outstanding presentation Milo! Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge with all of us! This was an incredibly comprehensive learning opportunity. I know I will come back as re-watch this video many times as a reference for the molds I make! THANK YOU! ~~Christy~~

How would you recommend making a mold for a hdpe plastic casting? I think it will probably require some sort of injection process into a mold, but I’m not sure what Material i should use to create the mold itself or how I inject a molten plastic

is there any way to show how to make vent holes in a two piece silicone tire mold? like a model car tire? thanks

This was helpful

Silicone fears sulfur. How to put a part which has been in contact with sulfur please?
Many thanks in advance

Milo is a demi-god

Do the mold Walls need to be a certain thickness?

Awesome videos guys

Hello, could someone give me some advice on how to solve my little problem.
I started by making a bivalve mold.
The first time after the second casting it all FUSED me together and I had a lot of trouble getting the base model out.
The second time I put some Vaseline oil to separate the two parts, but despite this, the two castings merged together anyway.
Could you suggest me some material to ensure that the two castings remain separate ???
Currently I asked the manufacturer and seller of the "Silicone Rubber" that I used and they suggested me to use a "hand cream" (NIVEA type):
Could anyone help me?
Thanks

Hi, I need some help to create Mold for the 2 inch valve I have some pictures for it. I can attached to you if you need. thanks in advanced

Thank you so much for doing videos like this. It is vital for someone like me from the other side of the continent (Sweden). Learning so much from you since you are really going into depth about most of the techniques. I have since this video aquired a bunch of your materials and are going to use them soon. An in depth video on the moldmaking and mothermold for something like the larger male statue in this video would be amazing!

is their a easy way to figure out the amount of material you need to use when you pored that mold?

Regarding the three part candle stick holder mold, what material was the plug made from? Was it also Mold Star 30 and just dyed? Or was it another material?

Very excited for this one.

will you have any tutorials on making the mold for various objects mainly for small actionfigures , ive tried so many ways to mold the parts like the tiny tire you made but all failures i think my issue is at the preperation stage

hi this video help me, i use more smooth on product and is very interesting for thank you

Great video! Thanks!! What percentage alcohol was used for the mold release mixture? 70%? 99%?

Can i buy from Europe?? Please let me know. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Thanks for sharing with us and make this happend . It's a lot of amazing information and tips . And very easy to understand and dinamic . I love it 🌺💕

wish you showed us how you cut the block mold for diver guy, specifically in between the legs, which would have locked the mold? this is so confusing to me.

So happy you shared the recording. I wasnt able to make the live stream
