Making a Mold
Project Description:
Students will be creating new crayons using the mold making process. Students will first create a small clay sculpture. Then they will create a mold using liquid rubber. Then they will melt crayons to pour into the mold. This is an artistic process called casting. A very similar process is used during metal casting.
