      Hi, I wondered if anyone could offer me some advice. I want to make a Mold of a resin ring I made but in a smaller ring size. I am trying to come up with a way to temporarily downsize the ring but I am stuck as to what I can use. Plasticine, clay, uncooked fimo? I want to be able to make a silicone mold from it and then be able to remove it and return my ring to its original size. Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you 🤔

      Hi Saffron, if I were to try this, I would use carving wax.
