July 28, 2020: Rubber Dice, Full Set (Plus an Extra Giant Gem) I absolutely love how these came out! I tried a little harder to keep out bubbles, and for the most part, I think I did pretty ok for rubber. I didn't think about that they might shrink when curing. But they didn't seem to shrink too much, so that's ok. The most important part of this is the homemade mold release. It's one part 70% isopropyl alcohol to one part (in this case) Dawn dish detergent. It worked amazingly well. I think I did a much better job of coating it than I did the first rubber die I made a while ago. Same molds, so it's not that. I just made a small 3 ounce cup full, and filled each of the molds completely, then poured them out and shook them out really well. Probably could have used a cotton swab to get some of the bigger drips left over. But this worked well. Remember, though, you shouldn't use these for resin after this. The soap probably won't have a good reaction with the resin. But I don't know, and I'm not trying. :) I can't wait to make more. I'll have to get more of the cheap molds because these will rip eventually. Probably sooner than later, though they felt pretty sturdy. We'll see! I'm also thinking about what else I can make out of rubber. I know I want to make silicone rings, but that will be a while. Maybe bracelets, bangle style. Earrings? We'll see. :) I also might try a harder rubber for more resistant when squeezing. These are super soft and smooshy. Like those squishy little animals that were really popular for like a month. #dice #handmadedice #dicemaking #siliconedice #rubberdice #bouncydice https://www.instagram.com/p/CDLp_jenOYH/?igshid=1hktmqqrnoy46

May 22, 2020: Soft Rubber Silicone D6 die Well. This worked a whole lot better than I'd imagined. It left a couple small pieces of itself behind in the mold, and it ripped in a couple of places. But over all, it turned out really nicely for a stress relief die! Honestly, I could have been more gentle with it. But I had accidently tried to rip my right thumbnail off earlier in the day, and it freakin' hurt! I'm going to get some of the Dragon Skin for my next attempt. See how it compares. I've been told that it is stronger, more durable, but still soft. Guess we'll see! I will also try using a talcum dusted mold, because that's worked for me in the past (though, I should try it once with the same silicone for proper research). This time I did the about half/half alcohol and dish soap thing that I just found out about (i didn't really measure). But I couldn't get it out of all the corners, so there were lots of voids. Plus the giant void where it shrank a smidgen. But, again, for a stress relief squeezy thing, who cares? It's not meant to be rolled during a session. I also really need a vacuum chamber if I'm going to make these on the regular. So many bubbles. We'll see. It's on my WishList with the Dragon Skin so I don't forget! #dice #handmadedice #siliconedice #rubberdice #bouncydice https://www.instagram.com/p/CAdirfOnlPk/?igshid=31ijl5133nhv
