Hi Colette, Sure! • Dayton OEM High Temp Blower (from Grainger) Model 1TDV3; • Adjustable Temperature Control Switch (from McMaster-Carr) Model 3626K67 or o Model 35055K71 (±4° vs. ±12° for 362K67); • Strip Heater (from McMaster-Carr) Model 3619K871. Good luck! ~t

Thanks a lot for commenting. It seems really expensive. Maybe I should work with silicone for now, and I though that was pricey. Thanks so much, though @@tdebreceni

Thank you Estelle!

I just saw your comment on reptilia strokes rock band. I love that you have your own little journey here aswell!

Thank you, Jennifer.

Hi Krystyna - It's cheap foam insulation that comes in sheets that I bought at Home Depot.

@@tdebreceni how thick where the sheets of insulation that you purchased?

@@krystynanormand652 the sheets are 1", but I doubled them, so 2".

When I built it and made this video, yes.

@@tdebreceni is there any way to radically reduce the cost? Maybe to 150?

@@altermann1ify doubtful, but I'm sure costs could be lowered; you could remove the convection component by losing the blower, but the wood and hardware alone will be more than $150, unless your family owns a lumber yard and a hardware store. If you figure it out, let me know!

@@BattlesWithBitsofRubber Thanks. Yeah, I'm strapped for cash. That's just too much money for making a few masks, at least for me. living on a fixed income isn't fun

@@altermann1ify Get a cardboard box big enough to contain your molds and cut the bottom off. Then line it with aluminum foil shiny side inward. Punch a hole in the top and stick a hair dryer in there and experiment with how much time and what settings on the hair dryer to cook the foam best. It is temporary, but I've used it to great effect in emergencies. Every hair dryer is different so experimenting is key. You can even shove a meat thermometer into the top to help gauge temperature.

Glad to be of service!

Thank you! It was a lot of fun.

Only if you're a good boy!

It can be, but if it was easy, anyone could do it and there wouldn't be anything special about it.

That information is in my book, as well as in a multi-part tutorial that Stuart Bray and I wrote for Prosthetics Magazine (issues 5 & 6)

@@BattlesWithBitsofRubber thank you, is your book offered online? also i was thinking about using an electric smoker i believe it has a heating coil inside which can heat the interior to a desired temperature set on an electric screen.

@@kbfxmonstertutorials3386 You can buy my book online through Amazon or my publisher. It's called 'Special Makeup Effects for Stage and Screen.'

Acetate; it is treated with silicone.

The dimensions are all in the video.

To rent or buy?

to buy for a child

Expensive.

i figured as much how much to rent and what do you require to rent?

Is this for a production of Shrek?

The ratios remain the same per the instructions, but regular liquid latex won't work for making foam latex. It's different stuff. You can try it, but I think you'll be disappointed with the results. Latex base amount for a standard batch is 750 grams.

Many ways to do it. No Color RCMA powder should do it, but you can use a number of matting sprays or gels to achieve no shine. I am very fond of Tom McLaughlin's Silicone Arts silicone finishing powder.
