I was looking for a way to create quality molds so that children can cast their own fossils. I really wasn’t satisfied with the molds I was making myself and a friend suggested using a silicon product. A little research and I came up with Amazing Putty – and it is amazing!

A little pricey on my budget -$20 plus shipping, buy off of Amazon or eBay as the manufacturers shipping is almost as much as the putty! I bought the 2/3 lb. introductory package. You can actually make quite a few molds, as you can see…

And I still have some left in the bottles. I have tried to put the fossil to the left, then the mold, then the casts to the right.

Pretty simple to use really. I didn’t measure, just pulled out about what I thought was a 50/50 mix, at room temperature it was very easy to mix by folding in on itself. Roll into a ball, flatten or make an oblong (whatever the shape of the item you want to mold. Press the item into the putty and let set for 20-30 minutes depending upon how much putty there is – smaller molds take less time. You can tap the picture to make it larger and then use your viewer function to enlarge even more if desired. Amazing detail!

This could be very useful in the field for fossils you just can’t get out of the rock!

These molds are washable and food safe. So, imagine trilobite gummies? Brachiopod ice cubes? Kids parties where they could make their own fossils and jewelry!

Update: These molds are dishwasher safe – love it! And you can buy a similar product less expensively at Hobby Lobby!  🙂
