Battleship Model Basic Hull Construction

	Securing the Master The master was glued onto Plexiglas with two small drops of super-glue to hold it in place; however, any smooth surface like glass or plastic will work. This will prevent the master from moving while the silicone sets.	Click Once To Enlarge

	Making the "Box" A small round box was built around the master and putty was rolled around the bottom edge. This will prevent the silicone from leaking out the bottom. I used kid's "Play-Doh" for this as it's cheap, and yes, edible!	Click Once To Enlarge

	The Silicone The silicone moulding rubber I chose to use, was Smooth-On OOMOO which gives a flexible mould. What is nice about this brand, is that it is a 1:1 measurement, making it very simple to measure the amounts.	Click Once To Enlarge
