Smaller than I expected

great product
Great for smelting small amounts of copper, silver, gold, and aluminum. I just wish they were a little bigger

Tiny!
I must not have read the dimensions well because this thing can practically fit in the palm of my hand 😂 it's comically small! My husband and I had a good laugh over it when it arrived. BUT it looks exactly like the picture and should work even though it's not the size I was looking for.

Works perfect
It's dirt cheap and very durable. I've accidentally dropped mine into cold water while it was glowing hot. Didn't hurt it at all. It's very temperature shock resistant. The sizes are perfect for me, but I'm melting gold. These aren't for aluminum or anything, just small amounts of precious metals. Anyone who leaves a bad review because it's too small isn't super bright. They have the measurements right there in the pitcure... you expect a graphite mold the size of a brick for 12 bucks?! Lol

It’s small and the bars portion is pretty much useless. I’ll give this one more star if it stands up to durability. I think it’d be good for jewelry making but still I see it as having to do twice as much pours. I bought a pair of them luckily, I think if you’re doing anything but jewelry making just buy a bigger mold, or have your own machined. Like I said it’s not a terrible product just tiny and if it stands durability I’ll give it another star. I don’t see these lasting past 100 pours.Update 12/30/23 The first one I started using is still going the graphite is starting to chip and fall apart, the second one is completely destroyed already the mold is so small that when you fill it up everything expands and tightens up even if mold is prepped properly. Spend the extra money and get a bigger, better, quality mold.

Great Quality
One of the biggest problems I find when it comes to Graphite Casting Molds is they are made too thin. Too fragile! Not with this vendor! The mold is nice and thick and didn't have a single blemish or chip in it. The edges and bottom were square and level. It doesn't wobble on the table. Great workmanship and attention to detail! I will be buying more from this vendor! That's for sure!

Nice mold
Works best if pre heated well

Both molds broke apart inside on my first pour. Uselessly small anyway.
The molds are way to small to be useful but I tried them anyway. Preheated all nice and proper before pouring. Was very careful to burn off any moisture first at low heat. Then slowly heated them up before pouring the aluminum. Both molds cracked apart inside when the aluminum came out. I was so careful too because graphite can be fragile. But this all came apart on the inside.Look at the photos. One broke apart completely inside, see first photo. Its all still stuck on the aluminum.The other chipped off in the middle, 2nd photo. You can see pieces of the graphite still on the aluminum. The top edges all chipped away when the alu came out.With such tiny molds it was impossible to just pour into the molds so I did my best at pouring to fill them all. I figured I would trim them later. They were single use only.I highly recommend avoiding these. Total waste of money.
