Thread: NOT VERY ORIGINAL

Just an added feature that I recall doing was to sift the p.o.p when I was dealing with small legged bugs, may sound a little to extreme but the end result showed the difference.
I only made a cube mold for one to three bugs at the most which having better outcomes.
the last was went to using a petroleum jelly for a better release factor instead of worm oil and at times used both.

Now here again from remembrance this seemed to work for me.

Your absolutely right, best way to go,

there are clay's that one can use oven curing,
problem arises when pressing in the small legs and small mandibles,
plus some one may not want to use an everyday oven.

Thanks Billy
This is the 1st time it's happened, I think it was a combo of way too much water and glue
This time I'm just going to use my regular plaster mix and let the chips fall where they may

I didn't see there was a page 3 before I posted
Bob, I have a dedicated pizza oven in the shop for baking molds and masters...Unless I'm REALLY drunk that's all I use it for
Billy, I have some of that clay and you got that right! too stiff for the little parts...

How come you don’t use Apoxsee you can take Half of a plastic bait in Lay it down on the table or a surface and pour the Apoxsee and let it harden and pull the plastic bait way just an ideal if you were wanting a half of a plastic bait let me know . This would come out of my injection molds they would be per Syse 100% if I get time I will buy a small amount of Apoxsee and try .
