Very fast shipping, accurate description and product works as described. will definitely be ordering more product, needed for a last minute metal casting college class and I am very pleased.

When I needed it they were there to help!

Great product. Awesome results. Easy to follow instructions

The foot casting kit was great. With the easy to follow video demonstration, the students were able to make a life-like foot for their TSA project. The foot, painted to look like it had a bad case of athlete's foot, was the hit of the competition in Seattle. The student won first place in their category for State and will be off to Washington D.C. to compete in Nationals this summer. Thank you so much for the awesome kit, Cheryl Payne Art Specialist Franklin Middle School Yakima, Washington

The guys at Accu-cast we’re very helpful. They answered all my questions and then some.

It took me two tries to get a completely finished product, but the results were quite good. One has to expect a hiccup or two and some learning-by-doing. My problem the first time was I apparently did not work fast enough with the alginate. It began setting before I had finished covering the framed-in area. I continued through all the steps successfully to practice the whole process. Even the partially unfinished first try looks pretty cool. It looks like a fragment of an ancient statue. The second time I used room-temperature distilled water rather than 80 degree, hard, tap water. That gave me more time to work. No problem finishing the alginate. The beauty of these kits is the pre-measured bags to which you simply add the prescribed amount of water. Mixing is very easy.and almost fool-proof if you simply follow directions. No buckets and drill mixers. No doubts about the quantity of water. Moreover, clean-up is simplified if one works directly from the bag with the plaster. The alginate cleans up easily since it does not stick to anything. When doing the stone cast, make sure to get the plaster into the nipple depressions before covering the rest of the mold.. Air holes love to form there in spite of my extra attention to getting the plaster into those spots. This kit is fun to do, and the result is just as shown. The staff here has been very helpful with answering questions and providing materials. Next I will tackle the full-torso kit. One shortfall is that my two kits had only 4-inch plaster bandages, no 3-inch as itemized. Simple fix: I trimmed some down to 3 inches with a scissors. Price is great for the high quality and user-friendly kit. Give it a try. Both you and your model will like the results.

Everything in the box was nicely packaged and labeled, and the included DVD made it easy to follow the directions! We made two foot casts for custom shoe fitting, and they came out perfectly with less than an hour’s work (plus some setting time).

Very easy to work with! Quick shipment of my order - never an issue!
