WoodCast

• 1.1 lbs WoodCast Moldable Wood Pulp
• 6 mil Nitrile Gloves
• KN95 Protective Mask
• Printed Instructions

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!
