Resin molds

Tools, Techniques, and Reference Materials Techniques

How do you make resin molds? I have some pieces that I need to clone, and I am in need of knowing how to make the molds to produce pieces.

For some offhand info, do a search for ‘resin casting’. I did a bit of reading when I was considering making some parts for other projects. I have seen some very good sites geared towards casting model parts.

The link above is one of the best ones I have seen as far as how-to for moldmaking. I would like to add if you start to like it you will end up with a pressure caster or vaccum caster so watch out it can become addictive.
