Services
Finished your sculpture and need a mold and replicas cast, but there's another sculpture just waiting to get out? Let us help.
Bring us your clay, your paper mache, sculpey, chavants, carved timber, etc and we will do the rest.
Want to make your own concrete or plaster tiles, bricks or ornaments, it's easy. All you need is an original to make the mold from, or create your own designs using various media. We'll make you a flexible mold and you're in production. You will get excellent results every time with this strong, long wearing and reliable product.
Using Barnes 4601 "food safe" flexible silicone, create your own designs for small individual chocolates or larger sculptural pieces for decoration and competition. The molds can be preheated prior to pouring your chocolate and will go in the fridge, wash it out with warm water. Good for 100's of pieces
Need more than a "one off" prototype, but still too few for most manufacturing processes. Need impossible to find dashboard knobs? Silicone molds are your answer.

Tutorials
If a bronze and a cold cast bronze of the same piece were placed side by side, it would be impossible to tell the difference, until you picked them up and then, perhaps the weight would be different, the cold feel of the metal would be indistinguishable. Read more in our Guide to Cold Casting Bronze
The first principle of a good mold is to begin at 'the end' and work your way back to the beginning. 'The end' being the piece you want to cast and the material you want to use, plaster, polyurethane resin, epoxy, silicon etc. Read more in our Guide to Silicone Mold Making
