Step by step, casting the toy soldiers with me (3 Viewers)

[sunyi]

he first part of the cutting toy soldiers.When we have completed the work after the sculpture toy soldiers, we must be cut into several parts, so that we can work on the casting parts.
Cutting as much as possible the gap along the cut of clothes. This will guarantee that the casting of the parts can be a natural connection. Toy soldiers will not be any major body surface cracks.
Cutting work must be carried out step by step. First of all, cut the hands holding weapons or items, if possible, should consider holding hands and the hands of cutting items together. The second part is cut off two arms, the following chart:

The third step, cutting the heads of toy soldiers. If he is wearing the hat of the complex, but also to start from the forehead, cutting his hat. It should be noted that as far as possible, cutting across the board the next plane will not. As follows:

Finally, cut his foot, he was now divided into a number of components.
At this point we have to complete the cutting work, and tomorrow I will give you on how to draw each component sub-type line, it would be very, very crucial step, do not forget to see my tutorial.

 

[sunyi]

The most difficult step is to set aside parts Lines. You can do so, along with a pencil in the parts set aside one-sided, as follows:

 

[sunyi]

To draw all parts of the sub-type a few lines like the following picture

Next, we began to tire of doing. We use a piece of plastic floor boards and sludge do. Components and then typing the following line to the part buried in sludge.

 

[sunyi]

Cutting edge of the sludge and tidy. Made the casting mouth for each casting parts.

In the latter, we began to transfer the plaster and water mixed liquid, and poured into the mold.

 

[sunyi]

We just finished the end of the half of a mold, it is like that.

Sunyi,
I am following! Very interesting and informative. Thank You
Mike

Gypsum 100 grams per 44 grams of water with modulation

Don't stop now! I have been wanting to make my own molds for some time now. In this step by step I am learning how to do this. Thank you!

 

[sunyi]

After a long time to dry. Dry white mold, and is no longer gray. Doing the other half mold before the parts need to be removed from the mold. After many tests, I found the best way to is to mold into the oven, and bake 110 C degrees for 10 minutes.

 

[sunyi]

After the heating, etc., we could soon be softened parts removed from the mold, it can guarantee that mold will not be subject to injury.
Such as mold and air temperature dropped to room temperature, we can give a combination of mold surface coated with a layer of Vaseline, it can guarantee that another casting mold can be two separate molds.

 

[sunyi]

Special Note: Do not coated Vaseline in cavity, which will affect the ventilation performance of mold! Add the components to the cavity, and the attention clean-up junction Vaseline redundant.
Finally into the plaster liquid.

I will tell you this weekend I used the tin melting temperature of the automatic control of

the electric furnace. The furnace is designed by my father, I commissioned a small batch

production factories.
I have different parts at the same time, casting temperature on the requirements of tin,

without the use of centrifuge conditions, relying on gravity casting parts to be completed.
China is now very hot weather in the north. In such a foundry weather, let me unbearable.

This weekend will be rain, the temperature will be lowered. Better weather I would like to

complete the casting process.
