Need Help Making a Cute Silicone Case for My Flip Phone!
Asked by SillyGoose123
Hey everyone! I'm working on a quirky project and could really use some advice. I need to create a case for my Cat S22 flip phone, and I'm feeling a bit lost. I initially thought about using air dry clay, but it turns out it's too brittle and not smooth enough for what I want. A friend suggested using silicone by wrapping the phone in plastic wrap and pouring the silicone over it, but I'm confused about how that would work. How much silicone do I pour? Will I need to sand down the excess? Plus, I'm not sure what type of silicone I should even use! My goal is to make it personalized and cute since the phone itself can handle a lot, but I want to make sure the case fits well, especially since it flips open. Any tips or advice would be amazing!

Using a 3D printing pen with sandable filament might be your best bet! I found a cool channel on YouTube called Sanago that has some great tutorials on it. You can definitely get creative with that!

SillyGoose123: Thanks for the tip! I'm thinking of using the silicone mold for the base, then adding fun details with the printing pen. Those pens have come down in price a lot since I first saw them!
