Hi everyone!\n\nCheck out this amazing new take on my popular 2-in-1 mold design, where I've merged two of my favorite things: high-resolution Pokeballs and soft, bouncy silicone. It's truly one-of-a-kind. This awesome idea sprang from combining elements of my earlier creations, the Broom Buddy silicone broom handle mold and an Apollo spacecraft. You can see it all come together in this mind-blowing video - https://youtu.be/x_w8o-u4QrI Want to give this design a try?

Choose wisely and print both sides twice as a set. Now, let's dive into making a Pokebouncyball - here's how to do it in four easy steps: 1 - Create a batch of proto-putty using Grant Thompson's trusted formula: mix silicone with food coloring (as a curing agent), cornstarch (for anti-stick properties and as filler), and other stuff that you might find handy. Watch this video by Grant Thompson for a detailed explanation: https://youtu.be/7fwytA5r2Mw 2 - Take some of the freshly made proto-putty and shape it into balls, roughly the size of your mold cavity. 3 - Get the pieces of your 2-in-1 Apollo mold and press them together firmly. Attach an alignment ring to hold everything in place, and put a small piece of putty inside for extra security.\n\nThen take a deep breath: locate the plunger that has this big dent in it (so that you don't miss it) and push all the way down. It shouldn't be blocked by any parts - but make sure not to fill the vent hole, which can lead to mold explosions. With luck, there will also ooze some putty out of the centre hole. \n\n4 - Allow 20-30 minutes for curing and then disassemble with care using a flat screwdriver. And just like that, you'll be holding one perfect Pokebouncyball!
