Wow Wendy 😱😱😱 this is incredible and omg you now have blanks forever .... nobody would know its not wood 🤣🙌🙌 love your method for raising the height 😍😍😍
That's an amazing chunk of burl, my favorite type of wood! ❤ You're right, it's expensive...everywhere! The mold is impeccably made! 😊👍 Gorgeous results in resin, too!
Congrats David Matchett! Great job figuring out a way to extend your mold casing! The mold is beautiful and now you have a gorgeous burl available whenever you want it!😊 A tip for eliminating flashing from underneath your piece as well as any leaks on the bottom of your mold casing: for smaller molds roll out a thin layer of sulfur free clay and slightly embed the piece and mold casing. An easy way to roll out a thin even layer of clay is to lay down a wooden skewer on either side of the clay and set the roller on those. For bigger pieces roll out a thicker layer of clay to create a better seal around the mold casing, this will help it to hold a larger volume of silicone. I hope I explained that well enough.. in case someone wants to try it.😆 Also, a good way to help prevent an exo-thermic reaction is to refrigerate it for a day or longer depending on its size and depth. All of your pieces turned out wonderful and your egg was perfectly shaped!❤
Thank you Funo. Does it matter if the clay is soft? Can you use it again after? I cured the resin in the pressure pot so couldn’t put it in the fridge. But I’ve seen Nick Zammeti put ice packs in the pot 🤔😂 A small amount of ripple is no big deal. Most likely get turned away anyway. Thank you for your comment 😀😀 I really appreciate it. And I think it definitely looks egg shaped 😂😂😀👍
@@Toonpish Yes the clay should be malleable, The brand Sargent Plastilina is sulfur free and would work. Silicone rubber doesn’t like sulfur and it can inhibit the cure. You can use it again after. I saw Nick Zammeti do that too! That was a great idea! On BM Sculptures channel he’s put 8 gallons of epoxy in a single pour! I’m not sure on the depth but, it was at least a ft. He used a vacuum chamber to degass and then put it in a refrigerator chest and I think he set the temp at around 50F. It took over a week to cure but, no bubbles and no reaction. I did a 3-4” pour using reg. resin with a 3/8” max recommendation and packed ice around it then refrigerated it. It came out with slight warping, which like you say was an easy fix. I didn’t have any deep pour resin and I wanted to use my new mold!😂 So, it can be a good tool if you’re pushing the pour depth a bit, or in my case.. a lot!😂
@@Toonpish I just realized when I mentioned rolling out a thin layer of clay, I was thinking about making smaller molds. Because I’ve been thinking about making a small mold.😜😆But, I didn’t say that in my comment! Sorry about that.🤪 For a larger mold with a bigger volume of silicone rubber, I’d definitely roll it out thicker. So you can push the casing into the clay deeper to create a better seal but, not so deep that all the clay gets squeezed out from under the casing. With smaller molds that’s not a problem. As far as the piece that you want to mold goes, it just needs to be embedded slightly. Did that make sense?😆Now I need to edit my original comment!😂
Hi Wendy, I Would just like to say a very big congrats to the gentleman that won your prize 🤗 ……… Wendy, you are so creative loved the way you made your mold bigger WOW loved the colours & really loved all the end Results 👍🙂 thanks for sharing Lin
Thank you Linda 😀😀😀 I do love a challenge and always like fixing problems and sorting issues 😂😂😂 which is great because I get issues sometimes 😂😂 Thank you so much and have a creative week 👍❤️
Hi Wendy, yet another brilliant project, you are certainly on a roll with new ideas to inspire us thank you and well done David on your win 👏🏻. Hugs 🦆💕
The mold casing looks easy to use and I have been toying with the idea of getting one myself for about 6 months. But as I have only made 2 molds (and struggled with it a bit) I'm apprehensive about getting one. The mold you made looks fantastic 😍 and versatile x
I am not so good with moulds which is why I think it’s great to show it as others can learn from my mistakes too. The casing definitely help a great deal 😀😀❤️👍
Once’s again lady you have knocked it out of the park. I love it that wood takes my breath away and I just love watching you create such beautiful pieces of Art can’t wait to see what you do with the 4 pieces you created from the one piece 😍
I am extremely pleased and overjoyed to have stumbled upon your channel! I'm going through a bunch of your videos now and will be trying so many new technics.. Thank You so much!
I've only been doing resin work for a year and honestly your step by steps of what your doing is amazing.. Seeing the steps being done helps to figure out where I'm going wrong...
I love how the mould looked inside! It's always exciting to see how strange shaped object's moulds look completely different from the original until you cast it. The finished pieces looked amazing too!
It was great to see the mold casing being used. I've been thinking about getting one and wondered how it would work. Now I know how to use it if I get one. The pieces that you made are wonderful! I love each one of them and the colors are amazing!
Hi Wendy, I’m a new y to your channel but I absolutely love it! I love to see all the fabulous things you make with resin. I’m completely new to resin and haven’t even made anything yet but I’m so excited to get started. By the way I live in the same town as you 😊.
@@Toonpish thank you so much. Look at you go! Lathing, bandsawing, sanding, diy'ing, just love a woman who can get in there and use all these tools. Your very inspiring hun.
Haha! Love it! I don't know if it is something you would consider, though I have seen you using your lathe, if you might show us 'newbies' how to use other tools with resin so we could have a crack at it too? 😁😁
I’m very much a newbie when it comes to turning. I’ve only had the lathe a year and not used it often due to time constraints. It’s not something I am comfortable teaching. But showing I could do 🧐🤔 I’ll have a think on that one.🤔
Omg that is beautiful, when you was putting the colour on and when you took it out it reminded me a lot of the northern lights so beautiful.thank you so much for sharing your discount code for let's resin I've used it a phew times now, would you be able to do a video on what resin you used for witch mould's please I'm still new to resin I just would like to know if I'm using the right type if that's ok thank you so much for sharing your work I love the videos oh and the asmr
Aww thank you so much 😀😀 I am happy you enjoy the videos. If you live in the UK I could run through the resins I use but we have limited resin available to us so you may use resins ive never heard of. But if I get time I will put together a video 😀👍
@@Toonpish I live in wales uk I'm currently working on Halloween stuff and some things are ok but some are still soft I've left them for days but still no luck
Then it must be the curing temperature or it’s wrongly mixed 😳🤔 Resin needs to be cured in a good room temperature in a dry place. Does that sound likely?
Love this video! Thanks for sharing your work. Your project turned out beautifully! I'd like to ask...what did you use to cut the resin casting into pieces? I have a resin cube i want to cut down but wasn't sure if a miter saw would work or what kind of blade to use?
Hi Wendy!! I'm in the us and can't buy the Vista black pigment :( I have seen you use it for other videos as well. Is there anything else you know of that's comparable? Thank you for this tutorial! I just ordered the mold casting kit. I'm going to try and make a mold of a dragon and see what I can play around with after all these tutorials!!
Thank you Dawn. I don’t have much access to the US market for liquid pigments, but that is definitely what I would choose over mica for a solid black. I hope you have fun and achieve your mould 😀😀💜
Hi, hope all is good with you. I have a question can you cast a ceramic piece in silicone to make a mold out of whatever it is ceramic? Love your channel!!!
@@Toonpish those are pretty. I saw them when I watched the video earlier. The Stich one is my favorite. I wonder what an amber color resin under the mica powder instead of black would look like?
That is amazing Wendy. I have been looking for a way to make pieces with melee burl in them or something that looks like it. I have toyed with 3d printing them but the heat from the resin would be too much so this is perfect. How much do you think you would charge for one of these moulds cos I would love one.
Thank you Wendy. I am honoured to win the competition. Fantastic mould and I look forward to seeing the many projects you make using it in the future.
Congratulations 🎉 well done David 😀😀😀 pop on over to my website and message me and we’ll get it sent off asap. It’s got a long way to travel 😀😀😀👍🎉
Wow Wendy 😱😱😱 this is incredible and omg you now have blanks forever .... nobody would know its not wood 🤣🙌🙌 love your method for raising the height 😍😍😍
I know right 😀😀😀 forever blank mould 😂😂😂 I do make a lot of blanks and now it’s easier 😀😀
Thanks so much Claire 😀😀😀❤️🤗
Congratulations David. Great idea Wendy and you got a perfect replica of the burl.
I did indeed Patricia 😀😀😀 and super happy with it 👍😀
Thank you so much 😊
That's an amazing chunk of burl, my favorite type of wood! ❤ You're right, it's expensive...everywhere! The mold is impeccably made! 😊👍 Gorgeous results in resin, too!

WOW the colour pattern Stunning Extraordinary Impressive totally Unique

I used a bandsaw, but any saw will do. I have used a scroll saw before and even a bench sander to shape pieces. I hope that helps 😀😀👍❤️
Could you have coated the sides of the wood in resin?
Yes, but not uv resin as this silicone doesn’t set with it 😀💜

Nice mold. You should consider yourself a mold maker now.
Oh no no no no erm
No 😂😂😂😂😂
It’s far beyond me 😂😂😂 but thank you 😊😀
When you turn the blanks, does the pieces look like wood in the piece you are making?
They look black at the bottom as it’s resin but the top looks like wood 😀😀 have a look at the pictures at the end of the video 👍❤️
@@Toonpish those are pretty. I saw them when I watched the video earlier. The Stich one is my favorite. I wonder what an amber color resin under the mica powder instead of black would look like?
The micas work better with a black background.
It will totally change the mica completely.
