I have been wanting to make some ballistics gel for a while. Since making it involves work in the kitchen, the wife said she would help
We figured making some for the PW shoot would be a good excuse to try it, so we did a "test mold" a few days ago. It takes about 40 hours total to have it work (not all work, most of it is just setting time) so we wanted to give ourselves plenty of time to make more. We also made the test mold small because we didn't want to waste a lot of it.
(I say "we" a lot, but honestly, I think I was more in the way, wife did most of the work)
Well the test mold came out today and I am EXCITED! This stuff is cool. it doesn't LOOK like much, but here is the test.
And since I didn't figure a picture would give you the FULL idea of what this stuff is actually like, I made a YouTube video of me smacking and squeezing it.

To anybody going to the PW shoot next Saturday, we are working on larger molds to shoot at!
