Question: As someone who is looking to do casting of buttons & brackets as well, how exactly did you do it with the molding? It appears that you cut open the mold down the middle, but wouldn't the buttons & brackets be in the way? How were you able to peel apart the 2 halves? Did you use aluminum foil between the sides?
They are two part molds. I carefully poured up to the near top, let the silicon dry, lightly covered with mold release, I just use a thin layer of vaseline, then pour the second layer. It usually peels apart without a problem.
