OLDER VIDEOS, BUT STILL GOOD INFORMATION
This video was done a couple of years ago and I've learned that twisting anything plastic or metal will make a beautiful hole in your molds without drilling. There wasn't a way to update that info on this video, but the Jellyfish Drip Mold shows that process.
Sewing SilkeMat® is a breeze using stainless steel thread and stays together for many many firings. The thread does not spall and allows you to do intricate mold making.Shelves are expensive. Although SilkeMat® doesn’t replace a shelf for every situation, having a “spare” comes in real handy.
