This video shows how to make SOFUBI molds much cheaper and quicker than going the overseas route. This is not to take away from metal molds - they are the STANDARD, they hold up, they have been tried and have proven true - but the ability to make our own molds for plastisol / soft vinyl is very exciting!

***** Please practice personal safety precautions when handling or heating plastisol! *****
NOTES:
- For larger vinyl figures and parts, consider either a stiffer silicone or a rigid support shell.
- There is some evidence that ALUMINUM powder may work (even better?) than copper powder.
- I'm using an oven because it's what I have, but an oven is probably not as efficient as a hot chemical or oil bath.
I make regular videos with the help of direct support.
