Clear Cube Silicone Mould Set | 20 to 65mm | Set of 5 - Resin Flower Blocks

Cast clear resin cubes in five sizes with this cube silicone mould set. The set holds 5 separate open cube moulds, from 20 to 65mm (0.8 to 2.6 inch), in flexible clear silicone, so you can make a graded row of flower cubes, paperweights or dice style blocks from one kit. Cubes are thick pours, so they need a deep pour epoxy resin and fully dried flowers.

Specifications

Perfect for

• Dried flower cubes in graded sizes
• Cube paperweights
• Keepsake cubes with tiny photos
• Colour layered resin cubes
• Gift sets of matching cubes

Compatibility

Works with: deep pour epoxy resin.

Pairs well with: dried flowers, silica gel for flower drying and LED light bases.

Not suitable for: UV resin, which cannot cure a layer this thick, or a thin coating resin poured deep in one go.

How to Use

1. Dry flowers fully, for example in silica gel, before casting.
2. Use a deep pour epoxy resin mixed to its maker's ratio.
3. Pour in layers as the resin maker advises, letting each one set before the next.
4. Cure fully, then flex the walls and push the block out from the base.

Before You Buy

• Resin, pigments and tools are sold separately.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes are the cubes in this set?
The set has 5 cube moulds from 20 to 65mm (0.8 to 2.6 inch).

How is this different from the 8 Inch square deep mould?
This set makes five cubes from 20 to 65mm; the square deep mould makes one 8 Inch (20.3cm) block that is 50mm deep.

Can I use UV resin in these cubes?
Only in the smallest cube and only in thin layers. For the larger cubes use a deep pour epoxy resin, as UV light cannot cure a thick block.

Should I pick epoxy resin or UV resin for cubes?
Deep pour epoxy resin fills a whole cube in one or two layers and cures slowly without cracking. UV resin cures fast but only a few millimetres at a time, so it suits top coats rather than full cubes.
