Options may be to use clear silicone and maybe something other than potato starch - like gum tragacanth (I use that for making soft pastels and a small amount can jell to make a large batch of pastels, so possibly less could be used - just something for thought.) Other possible starch substitutions could be tapioca, coconut, rice, just about any flour may work similarly. There are cool PearlEx pigments like interference colors that could be added in. I may have to make a case for my ipad pro that I haven't been able to find any case for yet.
This seems like an interesting way to seal up low-power DYI electronics for weatherizing. Not only for a water-proof layer, but to protect it against hard hits with something soft. I think a thick shell like this would take a lot of beating, and being a mold-able putty makes it very versatile. I could also imagine this being useful for DIY tool grips, to approximate vulcanized rubber. I assume the starch is just there to make it less sticky to where you can handle it. Does it affect the final strength after curing significantly?
My friend tried this. He made two: one he painted/dyed a tie dye style, and the other a camouflage pattern to blend with his airsoft and hunting outfits.
thank you so much. it's hard to look for casing for my phone, even thou it's almost 1 year after it's brand came out, it's rare to find the casing... update :i did it! but the back doesn't came out nice so i use your technic to cover the uneven surface using raw silicone.
I was a waitress for almost 25 years and one of my very favorite incidents happened when I approached a new table by greeting them with "How's it going, Folks?", as is common to say here in Minneapolis. The young couple both looked up at me and the woman immediately asked if I had just called them GOATS. I busted out laughing and told her that no, I had indeed not-but for years I'd been looking for a discreet way to relieve the tension that the worst customers can build in me throughout the day from time to time. That is how I began my own personal little inside joke of getting away with calling people goats who were acting like insufferable pigs. (Both are animals I'd find easier to serve Any Day!!)
Wraps the phone in gladwrap/cling wrap and yes you can use cornstarch or corn flour, this also works for making resins molds or anything else you might use silicon for.
i have watched this video before... wanted to watch again... was thinking perhaps I could try this process to make a protective cover for a laptop? i haven't decided yet if it's a good idea... thoughts?
Hello, I've been working on designing a phone case for my project, and I'd love to get your expert opinions on the materials I'm considering. I've narrowed it down to TPU, polycarbonate, and silicone.
That's a good selection of materials to consider. Each has its advantages and disadvantages. TPU, for example, offers good shock absorption, while polycarbonate is known for its durability. Silicone provides a nice grip. What specific properties are you looking for in your phone case material?
@@areuhu9230 I'm aiming for a balance between protection, cost-effectiveness, and ease of production. I want the case to be durable but not overly expensive to manufacture.🙂
@@hanhan-oy9hu It's great that you're considering both functionality and cost-effectiveness. Have you thought about how each material might affect the design aesthetics of the phone case? 🤔Different materials can give a case a different look and feel.
@@areuhu9230 Yes, I have. I'm trying to balance between ease of production and material quality. I don't want the manufacturing process to be overly complicated.
make paint with food coloring and starch and silicone afterwards to paint your favorite pic on it. use clear silicone and fish gel to make clear one or face cover. wonderful idea
Awesome, I might try making silicone boots for my power tools. For some reason there is no oem or aftermarket boots for most of the Milwaukee tools out right now. We'll see how this works out.
Yes! It would also be excellent for replacing missing foot caps from the legs of metal stools etc. The options are pretty much endless, really. I also think that if you experiment with the various types of plant based starches and the quantity and even branch into things like plaster of Paris or drywall material (whatever that's made of), you could be able to fit any need you have in custom detail.
usually people spell things differently to save time but it would take the same amount of time and letters to spell the words correctly... I hate "PPL" like you lol I can see how that one would save time but "gays" and "gayz" literally have the same amount of letters s0o0o why you do that?!
Well this is more for people who like to experiment.. the effort and the costs to get these tools are way more than a good simple silicon case from the store/ebay/amazon.
I couldn't find a cover for my car fob starter so I use this method and voilà! Now I can hang it to my keychain as the fob part was broken! Thanks for this! 😁
This also works with corn starch (Maizena). You forgot to mention, that the hack stinks like hell. Especially you hold the phone close to your face while using, this could cause some inconvenience.
If you wanted to paint this, what sort of paint would you recommend using? I have acrylic but I don't think that would last very well. If I did use acrylic, do you think a sealant spray would work over this?
Wow this is the perfect solution. I have a firefox fx0 and you cannot find a case specifically for this phone. I have some generic case on it now but I hate it. Plus it looks like I can make this case orange. This is a badass.
hm... If you add some food coloring and then you mold it to like a charm so it looked like a charm, and then you leave it to dry. Will it be a hard structure like a hard charm or will it be flexible?
Hy...I m from nepal...I have corn flour and gule ...I haven't any silicon and cornstrach....is that good.....it will made or not..., plzz reply mee....
+Faixo Productions if you pay £5 to £10 in Shipping you obviously don't filter your search, as i personally buy many cases under £1 with free shipping on eBay. Do your research before commenting!
If you have a phone that you can't find a case for, currently you can buy universal bumpers made from a super stretchy silicone. They accommodate a large range of phone shapes and sizes, but they have their issues too. I am not always happy with cases that you can buy. They might have rough edges, they might not sit well enough, the holes can be offset. I think being able to create your own protective case is still a valuable skill :) Even though the edge around the screen didn't come out too well in this video, and honestly i don't have a technique in mind on how to make it better. But i guess with enough effort, you can accomplish anything. Shipping small items from China that fit into a mail envelope only costs a fraction of a dollar; however it takes 10-14 days usually, the time that your phone will be unprotected. By the way, that comment at the end of the video about silicone being safe... well that only applies to pure silicone cured by platinum catalyst, which is quite expensive. This does not apply to home improvement caulk, which will usually be cured by peroxide or tin and produce various chemical byproducts. It's not dangerous to touch, but it's not safe around injuries and food.
Ollie Badstue but there's shipping costs and many times there's only a very few variations to chose... That's the problem I had with my old phone, only in eBay and aliexpress it was possible to find a case for it and most of them I didn't like, it would be better to make my own
This is amazing! Thanks for a great tutorial. I have a decice that doesn't have a case anymore so will try this out. ❤ Was wondering if this will be waterproof? will starch absorb water? And how do you color this?
I cannot get a case for my TV remote controls my 3 year-old keeps dropping & waiting a week for a new one +€€€€!!! I've been using bicycle inner tube slices just like cutting up squid to wrap around the ends! This is a brilliant clearly shown professional finish. Thankyou for the instruction! And .. l can do it myself 🙏 Brilliant!!!
considering everyone has a phone these days... even kids.... this would be a hell of a cool school project for either extra credit or a science application.
I have some questions can we do with any type of silicone? is potatoe starch is necessary? I saw some other vedio where they use corn flour. as I don't have potatoe starch can we use corn flour?
excellent video for making a Samsung case. As I only have a iPhone6, please can you make an equivalent video for iPhone? I would like to make one for my iphone.
This is exactly how they are made in the factory. I watched a "this is how it's made" episode once.
Really do you have the link?
Well it was many many years ago I think in the 90s
@@lesmcc8103 oh ohk no problem
Now a days these are made with injection moulding technology

Make sure you use acetic cure silicone (the stuff that smells like vinegar). The other variety will take weeks to set if it's too thick.

buy a model version of your phone
