A ring cone dish for the bedside table or by the sink: a round dish 100 mm across and 20 mm tall with a softly rolled rim, a smooth bowl for earrings and studs, and a cone rising 39 mm off the floor in the middle to stack rings on. It takes about 79 ml of resin.

Made with the box mode of our silicone mold maker in its round shape. The dish stands on its foot, so the block of silicone you pull off it is an open mold with the foot as its opening: the bowl becomes a silicone core and the cone a hole in it. The outside leans in and the bowl only widens towards the rim, so the silicone lifts straight off, no cutting. Print the base with the dish fused onto it, the two walls and the two clamps, and pour about 745 ml of silicone.

Pour it clear with dried flowers or gold flakes, in a pastel with a marble swirl, or in a jewel tone with a gold rim painted on. The zip carries every printed part, the dish master as its own STL, the tool's own print-settings sheet and a recipe file for the generator.

What you need

4
  • About 797 ml of silicone, ideally platinum (mix it in one batch)
  • Epoxy casting resin, about 79 ml per dish, with pigment, mica or dried flowers
  • A heat gun or torch for the bubbles, and a level surface
  • Wet sandpaper from 400 grit and felt pads for the underside

How to cast it

7
  1. Print the base with the master fused onto it, the two walls and the two clamps.

  2. Stand the base on the table. Set each wall down a few centimetres out from it and slide it in over the table until the ridge round the base sits in the groove at its foot, then slide the clamps down over the seams. Once they are on, the walls cannot lift, and the ridge seals the bottom.

  3. Mix 797 ml of silicone in one batch and pour it into a corner, letting it rise around the master until it covers the top.

  4. Once it has cured, take the clamps off, slide the walls straight out and pull the silicone block off the master. That block is your mold.

  5. Turn the block over and set it on a level surface, opening up. The silicone core in the middle forms the bowl, and the deep hole in it is the cone.

  6. Mix the resin slowly and pour a thin stream into the cone hole first, so it fills from the tip up and pushes the air out, then fill the ring around the core to the top of the opening. Pass a heat gun over it to pop the bubbles.

  7. Let it cure as long as the resin says, usually 24 to 48 hours. Peel the silicone back off the rim, then ease the dish off the core. Sand the underside flat if it needs it and stick felt pads on.

Questions about this design

How do I put dried flowers in a resin ring dish?

This mold is poured upside down, so whatever touches the silicone first ends up on top. Pour a thin first layer, lay the flowers face down into it, let it gel for a few hours, then fill the rest. Dry and seal the flowers first or they turn brown in the resin.

Will rings scratch the resin cone?

Gold and silver rings will not, but a stone setting can leave fine marks over the years, as on any resin. A fully cured epoxy, given a week, is hard enough for daily use; a coat of resin or a UV-resin top coat brings back the gloss if the cone dulls.

Can I make the ring dish in Jesmonite or concrete?

Yes. The same silicone mold takes Jesmonite, a fine concrete or plaster. Tap the block gently after pouring so the mix runs into the cone, and seal the cast before you put jewellery in it.
