We're not sure where our crazy ideas come, but we're glad we pulled the trigger on this one. Our new dual small bowl pet feeder mold empowers you to create incredible, thick, durable solid resin (or resin and wood) raised dog/cat feeders.

Functional art always has more value since it has a practical use. If you want to try your hand at making raised feeder bowls for the MASSIVE pet owners market, this is the mold to do it with!

The mold has three separate cavities. One for the main panel that holds the stainless steel dog bowls (not included) and two cavities to create solid resin legs to raise the main panel. The main panel section of the mold has two long rectangles, these create voids (or recesses) in your finished casting which are designed to insert the legs cast in the leg sections of the mold. Simply attach the legs to your cast piece with quick setting clear epoxy resin (or 5 minute epoxy, or super glue) and you're done! 

Alternatively, if you don't want to create solid resin legs you can cut your own out of 1" thick solid wood (7.4" wide by however tall you want the bowl to be) and attach them to the main panel the same way.

This mold was designed with two 5.55" diameter holes for the stainless steel dog bowls. We designed the mold to fit the "Van Ness 32oz" 6.375" diameter stainless steel dog bowls that are readily available, and the best seller, on Amazon. The voids for the bowls in the mold (and therefore your casting) are smaller than the overall diameter of the dog bowl so that the curved lip keeps the bowl in place, on top of the main panel. Other brands of stainless steel dog bowls of a similar size, with a flat lip will likely also work but have not been tested. Note: Gorilla grip brand bowls will NOT fit this mold.

Crafted Elements Silicone Molds

The last mold you will ever need. Created just for makers, resin artists and wood workers, these time saving flexible yet durable silicone molds significantly cut down on the setup and demolding time usually involved with other molds. Silicone molds are superior to wood and tuck tape, and HDPE molds because:

  • They can be used with epoxy resin, resin and wood, concrete, Jesmonite, plaster and more.
  • They never need assembled, or disassembled. Saving huge amounts of time.
  • The strength and flexibility of the molds allows you to insert and remove pieces of wood easily.
  • The corners and edges never need sealed.
  • When using wood, the wood stays in place, tight in the mold if you cut it 1/16" larger than the width of the mold. Alternatively use our HDPE block kit in conjunction with hand weights or clamps to keep your wood from up in your resin. The HDPE blocks dont stick to set resin and are easily and cleanly removed.
  • The mold is heat resistant to ~450F. Avoid direct contact with the flame of a torch. Briskly wave your torch or use a heat gun to pop bubbles.
  • The molds are reusable. However silicone molds do have a finite lifespan when used with epoxy resin, but getting 20-30+ castings out of the mold can be expected when they are properly cared for and a non-silicone based mold release spray is used.
  • Like HDPE, epoxy resin does not stick to silicone. However, the heat generated by the exothermic reaction and the chemicals in epoxy resin are very harsh to all silicone molds. Additionally, if part of your epoxy has not fully set due to improper mixing, the epoxy can become bonded to the mold. Both of these factors can lead to mold tear out when removing your piece from the mold, leading to pits and tears on the surface of the mold. This is why we a non-silicone based mold release spray is required before each pour. To help prevent tear out and to increase the life of your mold. We use the 'MG Chemicals 8329 Non-Silicone Epoxy Mold Release', 'Mann Ease Release 200' or 'Mann Ease Release 300'. Cooking spray, vaseline, silicone based sprays or sprays designed for urethane or polyester products should NEVER be used. Using a proper, non-silicone based mold release can mean the difference between getting only a couple of uses from your mold to 20, 30 or more.
