Making A Jig

Step by step instructions on making a Jig for your item.

Step 1

- Take a gulf ball size fixture putty

- Place the putty on your palm

 

 

 

 

 

Step 2

 

- Using the Hardener Gel Tube, pour 3 to 4 inches (8 – 10 cm) out onto putty.
(the more you add, the faster it hardens.)

 

 

 

 

Step 3

 

- Mix the gel into the putty for around 45 seconds until the gel is completely dissolved with the putty.

 

 

 

 

 

Step 4

 

- Place the putty on the print table and mold it to fit flush on the pad printer table. Put your imprintable item on the putty and make a deep mold. Set for 2 minutes.

 

 

 

 

Step 5

- Finally, let the imprintable item and the putty sit for about 6 minutes until the Fixture Putty has completely hardened.
- Remove the imprintable item and you are finished.
(Note: Depending on how much hardener you use will determine how fast your putty will harden. Use putty and hardener gel accordingly)
