Question about silicone pen molds

[BJohn]

Looking to purchase some silicone pen molds from ptownsubbie.

I figure the sierra mold will fit a lot of other type of pens. Can anyone advise which?

And does anyone know what would be best mold to use for my favorite the Triton.

I sent him an email off his web site, thought maybe someone else could help while waiting for reply.

Why not just go to the source ? If you're in that big a hurry, you could always make your own from a cutting board.

I did go to the source and I am waiting on a reply. Just thought I might pick up some other information.

By the way I do have some cutting boards in process of making some mold's. Also fixing to order the 3/4" vertical mold from fred but wanted to add a specific mold or two. Kinda spread the shipping cost out.

Hey Jim, I am just getting into this casting with Alumilite. Do you know what the difference is in the Alumilite liquid dyes and the powders (Alumi Dust) ?

Doesn't the Triton have a shorter lower tube than the Jr Gent II? If that's the case, and you're doing tube in casts, I don't know if he has molds for that kit. I do know he has molds available that aren't on his site. So maybe he has a mold that will work. I also think you can make a sierra from the lower barrel on the Jr Gent II mold. But Fred will know for sure. He's told the answer to that in the past. I just don't remember for sure.

Hi John

I use Fred's molds, they are great and work really well.

I too like the triton and used the Jnr Gent mold to cast stamps and such, you have to wriggle the silicon stoppers in further than they should go as the triton tubes are shorter than Jnr Gent, but it does work.

John,

I need the tube dimensions to ensure I have a mold that fits. I need the tube length and the diameter.

Thanks for the support everyone! I am working several new styles.
