Fine Grain Graphite

Optic Mold 16 Point

1.4" Dia x 3" Deep

551010211

  • Graphite Dimensions,  2" Dia x 3-1/4" Long.
  • Optic Mold has 16 points 1/8" Radius each approximately 1.4" Dia (largest opening) tapered 1 degree to a depth of approximately 3".   
  • Sides are tapered to allow your glass to easily be removed

The "Optic Mold" concept was designed by Hillside Gardens Art Studio. This particular optic mold was a variation of our original optic molds suggested by Malcolm with ARTCO, designed and machined by Weaver Industries, Inc... Our machinists are encouraged to initial their work in a discrete nonfunctional area of the graphite, something we don't normally get to do in our regular custom machined parts.

 

Graphite is a unique material when used with glass; your glass will not stick to the graphite even when it gets hot. The walls of the optic mold are tapered to make sure there is no undercut to catch the glass. Graphite is also a great heat sink so when you are working with Borosilicate Glass you may want to preheat the mold before using it or the graphite will pull the heat from the glass too fast to pick up a nice pattern. This should not be an issue with soft glass.

 

The photos showing glass made using our new style optic molds are courtesy of David Owen-Norton. This was wonderful feedback from someone that actually used the molds and understands glass. We know graphite, but with your valuable feedback, we can learn to machine our graphite into tools that you can produce master pieces. Thank You,

 

Great for glass blowing, molds, and precious metals molds, etc. Graphite is easy to machine, but very dirty and abrasive to tools and machines. Graphite uniquely withstands great temperatures as well.

 

Our Marble Molds, TPT (The Perfect Tool) Molds, and Optic Molds have enormous possibilities with your skills and abilities with Inventive Creativity and Originality.
