In this video, Instructor Emily Endo shows how to make ink from black bean soaking liquid. This is an excerpt from a longer workshop where students learned to make drawing inks using kitchen compost scraps.

    Great tutorial video. I want to create a mould to make face details on some egghead mannequins I have, copying from the one that does have a detailed face. How thick might I need to make it? As the face is curved, would I be better off pushing the face down into a tray of silicon-cornstarch putty. Do I need to put straight silicon on first?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    I watched this as a replay, so I am not sure if you covered it, but will these molds work for resin casting? I hope so because this method will make it a ton easier to make custom molds.

    I use Mineral Spirits or Naphtha to thin down Silicon and cornstarch to accelerate setting. You can thin it down to a pourable liquid. I mix in the cornstarch into the thinners 1st to then evenly mix into the silicon to avoid clumping. Someone posted using Xylene as a thinner, I would avoid that stuff as it extremely nasty and unnecessary.

    I tried this a couple different ways, they were similar to yours but not as good. The first mold I put way to much corn starch and my mold dried heavy and hard. I made a Froot Loop mold, it worked but it was so hard, some of the wax Froot Loops came out good but it was to hard to get most of them out. Your way seems much better.. so I’m gonna give it a try! Thank you!

    This is great. I bought a cheap mannequin and I was thinking of making a face for it. I want to make a mold of its original face but then make a silicone face... and have various breast sizes. I want to dress it as superhero characters for a podcast. I am an extremely poor person so I don't have much money for this.

    I tried using xylene as thinner for pure silicone and made a bucket full of it. I was able to pour it like water. Have to do it in a well ventilated area or outdoors though. I have also used the thinned silicone as waterproofing and applied it with a roller.

      Xylene as a thinner? I would avoid that stuff as it extremely nasty smelling and very caustic. .I use Mineral Spirits (the "no smell" kind ) or Naphtha to thin down Silicon and then add cornstarch to accelerate setting. You can thin it down to a pourable liquid as well. I mix in the cornstarch into the thinners 1st to then evenly mix into the silicon to avoid clumping.

    • @MissInformer
      @MissInformer 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      As long as it's 100% silicone, like mentioned at the start, the brand should be irrelevant, because the material inside is identical. The different brands would mostly come down to the durability of the container it's in, and the method you're using to remove it from that container. And for what it's worth, the tube of silicone won't make much difference compared to a good quality caulking gun that can properly and reliably open the tubes. But making sure it is 100% silicone is the important part, the brand is not.

    Corn starch is a natural thickening agent try the add it to hit weather and it clumps into clear clumps but mix it thoroughly into cold water first and then add it to your hot water stiring quickly and you get a water consistency for eggdrop soup can't explain past that but maybe it will help you draw a conclusion to why it reacts the way it does with the silicon
