the parts needing to be two sided had clay built up on or in one side. once that side was captured in silicone the clay was removed, then the second half was made. I chose to cut in the vent and pour spout on this one.

the next mold was the grip tube, it was made by using a tube in the center of the part, this did three things, kept the wall an even thickness, made it more flexible and easy to remove the part, and saved on silicone

one of my goals when ever I make a mold is to keep cleanup of the part as simple as I can and maintain a clean image capture of the part. some times this creates more work for me to achieve this.
this part was filled with clay and tack glued to a flat surface, the containment was made and the silicone filled it. the mold with the part still in place was released and the clay was removed , the part was fully cleaned with rubbing alcohol . and then the second half was made. again I cut in the vent and pour spout, but after a couple test runs, my suspicions were right, there was more vents needed, you can see where air was trapped inside the mold. I simply take a brass tube and cut the inside edge sharp with a razor and push it right through the silicone easy pleasey

I am happy to own a set of real parts myself, but am thrilled by the quality ofJerry´s and your work Dan!
Can´t wait to see the first finished replicas to pop up...I did not do anything to my Arriflex motors yet
Wow, now THAT brings back memories! My dad used to have that exact set! I remember the little base and that clear plastic cover. That's so cool, I haven't thought about that in a loooooong time.
Just bought one off eBay, so they do seem to be out there!
