I will be starting my 2 peice-mold soon and I have some questions.

What type of Plaster do I use and where do I get it? Online or store-wise
Which later do I use for molds? Online or store wise.
 
Well if you mean ultracal 30...that's used for latex or silicone casts.....masks....silicone molds make the BIOS. Or helmets....or anything hard.......basically hard molds produce soft casts......soft molds make hard casts
 
I would buy your stone, the Ultracal 30, through a plaster vendor who is local, so you do not have to pay for shipping. Often times the shipping is more than the stone because of weight. I would go to the US Gypsum website, they make the UC30, and see who is local to you. I usually buy in 100 lb bags as they are the best value. I also recommend buying your burlap by the roll and getting a bit of Acryl 60.
