How to Vent your Toy Soldier Rubber Moulds.

Find your mould does not cast exactly as planned? Cannot quite get that sword to come out correctly? Well worry no more, Prince August has put together a comprehensive video on the process of venting, often misunderstood or ignored by hobby casters, for fear of permanently damaging the mould.

It covers predrying the mould, warming the mould, analyzing the problem areas, cutting channels easily and in the CORRECT direction, doing a test cast, application of talcum powder and more. All in 5 minutes.

Just check it out today, try venting a mould and enjoy a whole new experience.

Note: using these tips you can use the cheaper standard metal and get much better results too.
