I cut my teeth this past year on a one part silicone mold and casting. The mold and castings came out better than I expected so now I want to move up. I've been doing research on making a two part mold but I have a few questions.
I will (hopefully) making a two part silicone mold and resin cast of a pistol.
1. Would the barrel be the best place to pour resin from?
2. If so, should I add the spout when creating the mold?
3. Do I need to add a vent(s)?
4. If so, should add vents when creating the mold?
5. Should I brush in a bit of resin on each side of the mold then put the halves together and pour the rest in the spout?
Thanks gang!
