3D Printing vs. Silicone Molds: The Ultimate Showdown

In this battle of 3D printing technology and old school silicone mold making and resin casting, you’ll choose a side – 3D printing vs. silicone molds! You’ll decide which process is better for your needs – 3D printing or silicone molds? Here are links to the tools and materials used in this video: MY SILICONE MOLD-CAST RESIN SET UP: RESIN: Smooth-Cast 300, Casting Resin (pint kit): Smooth-Cast 300, Casting Resin (gallon kit): PRESSURE CASTING SET UP: Pressure pots are made for spray painting and have to be modified for this process. I have the 5 Gallon but also linked the 2.5 if you’re doing smaller work. I actually wish I had a larger unit: 5 Gallon Pressure Pot: 2.5 Gallon Pressure Pot: DEWALT Air Compressor: RESPIRATOR: I use a North respirator with a gas and vapor cartridge. Make sure the mask fits your head size: Small/Med/Lrg. Re
