The Texas shaped coasters are ideal, especially if you have Texas-lovers. I was able to put in dried flowers to create beautiful set of coasters. Of course, the flowers I used in the molds are native to Texas. The mold material is heavy-duty and very easy to unmold. The surface of the mold is very glossy. Use a little mold release to add to ease of unmolding. I plan on using these for many projects. I was very impressed with the quality of the mold, but even more impressed with the resulting pie...

These are the best molds I have ever used. If you use the correct mold release, they are tough and products release easily. The only issue I have is that the description on the website pertaining to the resin capacity is totally off. The website states each section holds 4.5 oz of resin. I usually do my own check by filling the mold w water to see how much it holds. This time I trusted the website. It’s off by 3.5 oz, a full 8 oz fits in each section. I reread the description to make sure what i...

We've had a lot of babies in the family in the past year. My niece just had her 3rd baby and when I saw this template, I decided a growth chart would be the perfect baby gift. Then I made one for each of three cousins' children who are either having babies this spring or had one in the last year. Finally I'm making one for another niece whose baby turned 1 the day the first niece's 3rd baby was born. I love that the template is full sized and the pieces notch together so I don't have to move it ...

Mold Creates BEAUTIFUL BAACKGAMMON BOARD! This silicone mold produced an absolutely beautiful backgammon board. This is a high-quality, thick, silicone mold – actually heavy to handle (almost 5 pounds!) – that holds its shape well. I love that the stones and board are one-piece so you don’t have to worry about losing parts. The design has really nice intricate details like the pointed triangles. I sprayed my mold with Apel Mold Release Lubricant before pouring the resin because I had it on...

I received my router plate for my DeWalt trim router a couple of weeks ago. After several iterations of ideas and having to build a new workbench, I finally got around to setting it up today. It still needs tweaking and I am ordering aluminum track for the fence, but I’m happy with how it turned out. So far. I discovered that if you order the dust collection accessory for the fixed base, it can be incorporated, as can a rear dust removal port. I have two shop vacs I’ll be using, but I also have...

Excellent products and even better customer service! Don’t hesitate and buy with full confidence. The shipment arrived in perfect condition and in a timely way. Shawn answered all questions in his easy to understand and follow tutorial. He even went the extra mile and addressed my questions via email. I purchased the template for the Festool 1400 and it fit perfectly. I did need to go to Home Depot and buy flat head machine screws (M4-0.7mm X 16mm) which worked great. I only needed to count...

First off, this thing has been great for the project I’m working on. I gave five stars because it has done just what I needed it to do, which is help me flatten a number of piece of rough cut wood. Having said that I have a few comments and suggestions to the maker of the Crafted Elements router sled. By the way I got the 48 x 48 version. In order to get mine set up, I had to redrill all the holes for mounting the bearings on the router plate. They were not quite big enough, and two of the hol...

I took my first woodwork class last October, aged 68. It has become something of a passion! Moving through the gears as quickly as I could I decided the time was right to do some routing. But, what to make? Last week I came across this lovely template from Crafted Elements and ordered it on the spot. It was delivered within a few days to Ireland together with a High Performance Template Router Bit - 1/4" Spiral Down Cut Flush Trim Bit. Both template and router bit are of very high quality. I ...

Absolutely love this sled! Have been using it for a few months now. When it originally arrived, the packaging was great and the materials were all well-protected. It is super easy to set up and operates very smoothly. I'm running a 3hp router on it and it does such a great job of flattening wood or wood/resin material. I've had projects from 3/4" to 5" deep that need to be flattened. When i built my sled table I just made extra plywood strips to raise or lower the whole sled occasionally if need...

I bought the router sled to flatten a 3’x 6’ dining table project. Set up was pretty straight forward. I attached the rails on one side and got the other side relatively parallel, fine tuned the rail sliding the assembled router carriage from end to end to true it up parallel. It slid perfectly along the rails. I used Elm Burl and 12 gallons of epoxy. After i poured i waited 2 weeks before attempting to flatten the table. I used a 2.5 inch flattening router bit i bought off amazon. I also bo...
