Making A 3-Piece Silicone Mold

Casting a Foam Figurine using A 3-Piece Mold
•••
Unsatisfied with my armless foam casts, I decided to take one more attempt with a slightly different approach. Using a 3-piece mold, I would be able to cast the arm directly into the model so I wouldn’t have to try to attach it later. But wrapping my mind around how to even go about making a 3-piece mold was quite the challenge. Luckily, using Solidworks, I was able to plan the mold in advance. I still wasn’t entirely confident in my approach, so I was pleasantly surprised when I got something that looked like the original. Unfortunately, the down side of a multi-piece mold is that there are seams, and in my case, flashing where material seeped between the different sections of the mold. At this point, I decided to call it quits on the foam casting for the time being to focus my efforts on a more JBV Creative style solution to creating a ‘finished’ version of the figurine. That we will cover in a future video!
