Hi everyone. I just posted a blog about Cool Mini or Not's product Instant Mold. It has some great properties but also some limitations.

Check out my blog to see what I came up with:

Got to find some Oyomaru (same thing, at far less cost) if I can find reasonable shipping.

I think this will be where I get it from next time.

I was ordering some other stuff from CMoN so it wasn't too bad. The stuff seems to be very reusable so unless you're going to keep particular molds you can reuse it indefinitely.

I need to call ArtClayWorld and see what they charge for ordinary post (USPS). Their minimum change using UPS--$15.00 to ship less than a two-ounce package--seems excessive.

If you are willing or order from Singapore you will find the best prices and reasonable shipping.

With the different colors I usually take a clear bit and a colored bit to make the two halves of a mold. Then cutting it in half gives you a visual guide to go by. Not always exact but better than a hit in a stomach with a cold dead fish.

The best thing is if you get a bad cast or screw up the cutting, it is back into the hot water and try it again.
