Step 7Constructing the mold for the casting
Now you have to construct a mold, where you put it the white case.
I used some small wooden drawers., because they are right-angled and and have a smooth surface.
Make very sure, that all edges are tight. Otherwise the fluid will find a way to drop away...
To make the outside surface more smooth and to prevent it from sticking in the mold, i covered
the whole thing with packing tape.
Stick the ipod clone ( or the original, it will survive) into the slot .
Place the dock in the middle of the mold.
Keep in mind, that the cable has to lead somewhere out of the mold, without leaving a hole.
It has to be as waterproof as possible.
