Anyone using these successfully on moldable plastic, e.g InstaMorph or Shapelock?

I haven't used on plastic. I've used them on medium and hard mortuary wax and they work beautifully. I have also used on clay which is very soft and they are great for that too. Some of the tools ar dull which works great on soft clay and some are sharp and carve the hard wax very well. I hope this helps you out. HOnestly, this tool kit is a great investment. Best of luck!

We have only used them on clay and they work fantastic. Very precise. Not sure about moldable plastic.

I only used it on a plastic model. I have extra I can try on some spare wood I have laying around.....

Are you drunk? Of course not! Metal is not plastic (last time I checked). Superglue is your only real option here. Unless you want to try soldering them. Or recasting them altogether (if they are lead). Seriously: cyanoacrylic or nothing for you, sir.

I originally purchased these for soap molds, but they would also be great for panna cotta. They would remove easily from the silicone mold and the shape is perfect.

Yes I use them on steel paint wood and plastic they don't stick to the plastic.

You can woth most silicone molds, but I would double check with the company, they are really helpful.

I used plasticine to sculpt a mask, then used the silicone to make a mold from it. It works fine, the smooth-on is a liquid so you pour it over the clay and let it dry. I had no problems with the 4 masks I did with it.

No, it stuck to the mold. I wish I could find the original one's I ordered.....those worked great!

I just tried two different batches of jello in these silicone molds with no luck. I could not get the jello out of the mold intact. Maybe someone knows a trick?

I use them on Plastic Poly Bubble Mailers and they stick very well! They're all I use! Very well worth the money.

I'm not familiar with that particular set, but they certainly work with Imaginarium in general. The clips are a plastic clamp that goes on the underside of the track where 2 pieces meet. They fit quite snugly and we've had no problems with any coming apart.

They do not have a channel that the Plexiglass fits into. They glue to the surface. They will work with any thickness.

The cholcolate is excellent for melting. I do not know about reshaping with mold trays. I use it for cholcolate covered pretzels and it is the best by far.

NOTE!! I used these to make crayons, and at first they came out fine, but then I left one batch in the oven a little longer by mistake. A few of the minifig molds came apart when I popped the crayons out, and then after making a couple more batches with the ones that were still intact, all of them ripped apart. If you make crayons, I would recommend melting them in the oven in a separate container (I saw a tin can as a suggestion) and then pouring the melted wax into the molds to cool. This should preserve your mold. I was pretty bummed that my mold was ruined before I finished making everything I needed for my son's birthday party. :-( NOTE!!

Mine works great with plastic collated nails. I don't know if other collation types would work or not.

I have used the bits for a limited amount of plastic drilling. They go through it like butter. However, certain injection molded plastics forced me to spend a fair amount of effort cleaning the bits afterwards, as the heat and friction causes some plastics to stick inside of the bit grooves. Nothing that isn't easily overcome though.

No, it's better. Friendly Plastic had a problem with going brittle over time. Instamorph has been very stable for me.
