FormCast+ casting kits

Make things you’re proud of.

FormCast+ is a powder. Mix it with water. Pour it into a mould. Half an hour later, take out a piece you made. No kiln. No workshop.

  • Powder
  • Moulds
  • Colours
  • A guide

You need three things from home: scales, water and a table.

What making feels like

FROM FIRST MAKE TO SELLING

How a piece happens

Four steps.
Easier than making tea.

Pour within 10 minutes. Take it out after 30. Wait a day or two before sanding.

  1. Weighing white casting powder in a mixing cup on digital scales
    01

    Weigh

    Powder and water on the scales. 3 parts powder to 1 part water.

  2. Stirring white casting material until smooth
    02

    Mix

    Colour goes in the water first. Stir for a minute.

  3. Pouring casting material into an oval silicone mould
    03

    Pour

    Slowly into the mould. Tap out the bubbles.

  4. Casting material setting undisturbed in its mould

    Honest questions

    Questions people ask.

    Short answers. Ask us if yours is missing.

    Ask us something else
    Can I do this if I have never made anything?

    Yes. Mix powder and water. Pour it into a mould. Wait half an hour. The guide shows every step. Your first piece will not be perfect. That is normal.

    What do I need from home?

    Kitchen scales, water and a table you can wipe. Sandpaper helps but you do not need it.

    How long does it take?

    Mixing takes a minute. Pour within 10 minutes. Take the piece out after 30. Wait a day or two before sanding.

    Is it safe?

    Yes, if you follow the bag. Do not eat it. Do not breathe the dust. Keep it out of your eyes and away from children. Do not pour leftover mix down the sink.

    Do I need a bigger kit to make good pieces?

    No. The small kit has everything for a first piece. Bigger kits just have more.

    Can I sell what I make?

    Yes. It is yours. Two of the guides help with photos, wrapping and prices. Selling is your choice.

    What colours come in the kits?

    There are five colours: Soft Charcoal, Soft Brown, Sand Ochre, Soft Green and Mist Blue. We are still choosing which go in each kit.
