This is really cool. I think it may be best to have separate moulds for food use and craft use though. When you mix the two measures of silicone, was that mixing two colours to get the shade you want, or mixing together two packets to make the right amount, or are they two types of silicone? When you say dissolve the silicone mold, am I right that you mean disassemble/take apart the original form by removing the plastic Lego bricks and base board from around and inside the cured silicone? Also did I understand correctly that once cured you can use the silicone mould with new silicone of the same type, to make silicone bricks? I wonder if there is a good way to make the bricks so they fit together...☺

I don't understand what that means or how to do it.

Simply cure the silicone mold at a corner and peel off. Then remove the stones that still stuck in it. Watch the video i hope it will explain.
