Hi all!

This is an un-tested (which is why it's free for now) mould for a grip that can be used as a comfy grip on a broom, rake, mop or anywhere you think you can use it. It is based on the same principle as my 2-in-1 Broom buddy handle/Apollo model.

See that video here to see a similar process - https://youtu.be/x_w8o-u4QrI

Download the 2-in-1 Apollo model/ rubber handle maker here - https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-print-models/hobby-diy/hand-tools/broom-buddy-3d-printed-2-in-1-mould

To make a grip, follow these steps:

1 - Mix up a batch of proto-putty (silicone with food coloring as a curing agent and corn starch as a filler/anti-sticky....stuff) See Grant Thompson's video on how to make proto-putty here -

2 - Mould the proto-putty around the plunger.

3 - Place the plunger into the mould with the locating pin in it's slot.

4 - place the other side over and squeese tightly.

5 - Assemble the alignment pieces

6 - Push the plunger the rest of the way in.

7 - wait 20-30 min and dissasemble.

8 - remove the cured silicone handle and carefully remove the plunger.

---Theoretically!---I have yet to test this, but the concept works on my other models.
