Nice battalion of tools you showed us. Thanks for doing this, I've learned a lot. You didn't make it look easy, but easier than what I knew. The little bit of experience I had making molds ( and I had help) We would pour the mold, and set a timer. then take the piece out and cut it in half to check the thickness. Then do it again until it was what we wanted. I always wondered about the timing and the absorption as the mold got wetter....how to account for less and less absorption if doing multiples in a day.
