You want to be a Mold Maker?

So you want to be a mold maker?

Mold making is as easy as you want it to be, but it can become more and more complex as you learn and experiment. We've made ComposiMold Re-usable Molding Materials to make it easy for you to learn mold making.

Where to Start Your Mold Making

Start Simple. Find a relief sculpture with one flat side and try it. Don't worry. ComposiMold is re-usable. Any mistakes, just re-melt and start again.

We had a business client of our who thought they were smart enough to make a complex 2 part mold the first time they had ever made a mold. By the time they were through, they had spend over $3000 making molds and still didn't get a finished product! With ComposiMold, this would have cost $400 and they could have become mold making experts. You can't stop people from their own egos.

After you make your first mold or two, you can explore and experiment with other mold making techniques. Maybe brush-on molds? Maybe a cut block mold where you cut down the sides of the mold? And then you can try the 2 part molds. They are relatively easy after you learn the basics.
