WoodCast is a revolutionary moldable wood pulp that lets you create custom appliques, decorative trims, and architectural details that look and behave just like hand-carved wood. Press it into any of our silicone moulds, let it dry, and finish it exactly like real wood. Carve it. Sand it. Paint it. Stain it. Gild it. Antique it.

Every casting releases cleanly from the mould, holds incredible detail, and can be bent around curves before it fully sets. No woodworking tools required. No carving experience needed. Just beautiful, heirloom-quality detail in your hands.

Pair with our Decorative Moulds for instant old world designs, or create your own custom moulds with our Silicone Mold Making Material. New to WoodCast? The WoodCast Beginner Bundle includes three moulds and a workshop video so you can learn the technique directly from Amy and Gene Howard.

Every order includes nitrile gloves, a KN95 mask, and printed instructions.

What's Included

How to Use WoodCast

With just a few simple steps, you can create beautiful, detailed castings that look like real wood.

What You'll Need

Acetone (nail polish remover works great)
Small paper or glass container
6 or 9 mil nitrile gloves
N95 dust mask
Fan or a well-ventilated workspace

Step 1. Prepare Your Workspace

Work in a well-ventilated area and use a fan for good airflow.
Put on your gloves and dust mask.

Step 2. Pour Your Acetone

Pour about 1 ounce of acetone into a small paper or glass container.
This acetone will be used to keep the WoodCast soft and pliable while you work.

Step 3. Select Your Mould

Choose the Amy Howard at Home mould you will use for your casting.

Step 4. Open Your WoodCast

Open your WoodCast can and remove a small amount of material.

Step 5. Keep the WoodCast Soft

Place the WoodCast into the container with acetone to keep it soft and workable.
Seal the plastic bag inside the can after each use to keep the remaining WoodCast fresh.

Step 6. Begin Filling the Mould

Start placing small amounts of WoodCast into your mould.
Press the WoodCast into all details and corners of the mould.
Use additional acetone as needed to keep the material pliable.

Step 7. Fill & Smooth the Surface

Continue adding WoodCast until the mould is completely filled.
As you reach the top, use a small amount of acetone and your finger to smooth the surface level.

Step 8. Allow to Dry

Most castings will dry in 4 to 5 hours.
Deeper moulds may need to dry overnight.

Step 9. Remove the Casting

Once dry, gently bend the mould away from the edges of the casting.
Carefully pull the WoodCast out until it releases completely.
Use an X-Acto knife to carefully trim away any excess material if needed.

Step 10. Attach Your Casting

Use quick-set wood glue for wood surfaces.
Use a quick-set glue designed for other materials when attaching to non-wood surfaces.

Step 11. If Using WoodCast on Curved Surfaces (Optional)

Place the finished cast in the microwave for 30 seconds.
The cast will become flexible and ready to bend around curved surfaces.
Bend gently, as the cast will only flex so far before it can snap.

Cleaning Your Mould

Use a rag with a small amount of acetone to wipe away any leftover WoodCast.
Your mould is now ready for your next project!

Woodcast FAQ

Clay shrinks, cracks, and cannot be sanded or carved realistically once dry. WoodCast™ is true wood fiber — it behaves exactly like wood and gives you architectural-quality detail without the fragility or inconsistency of clay.

WoodCast is formulated to look, feel, and behave like real wood. Because of this, it is not recommended for long-term outdoor use. Just like natural wood, WoodCast can absorb moisture, swell, or eventually rot when exposed to the elements. If you choose to use it outdoors, be sure to seal it thoroughly with an exterior-grade sealer and avoid placing it in areas with direct weather exposure.
