This looks great, thank you for making this video and talking it through so clearly. I didnt know this was possible as a hobby and by hand. With a 3 year old making traintrack hits home for me. What is model metal actualy made from?
It varies depending on the complexity of the master figure and what metal you are pouring in. You will get dozens perhaps. The rubber is more delicate than our standard rubber. Normally make the metal master and then convert it to a full black rubber mould by sending it to us. A direct press for a strong black rubber mould is a service we can provide.
