What size resin piece does this mold make?
This mold is sold in two sizes, named after the finished piece. The 4 inch option produces a Lifesavers candy measuring 4 × 4 × 1 inch (10.2 × 10.2 × 2.5 cm). The 8 inch option produces a Lifesavers candy measuring 8 × 8 × 2 inch (20.3 × 20.3 × 5 cm). Choose your size from the dropdown before adding to cart.
What can I cast in this mold?
The mold takes epoxy resin, plaster, Jesmonite, candle wax and soap. It is cast in 20A platinum-cure silicone, mixed 1:1 A/B and vacuum degassed so the casting surface stays free of bubbles. At 20A the silicone stays soft enough to flex open by hand. The silicone manufacturer specifies a temperature range of -60°C to 250°C (-76°F to 482°F).
How long does it take to ship?
Orders are processed in 2–4 days before shipping. Economy international shipping then takes 13–23 business days. You receive a tracking code once the parcel leaves the workshop, and tracking usually becomes active after about 3 days. Shipping cost is already included in the listed price. There is nothing extra to pay at checkout.
Can you make this Lifesavers mold in another size?
Yes. YolkySpace makes custom silicone molds from your own design or from an existing shape at a different scale. A new master is 3D-modelled, printed and hand-polished for your order, and it is never reused for another customer. Custom mold making starts at $249. See the Custom Silicone Mold Making Service page for details.
