I want to make some but it looks like I’ll need 140 dollars worth of gel powder, what’s it costing you guys to make your blocks of gel ?

How to make REAL ballistic gelatin


I usually use a little over 2lbs of gelatin. I use Knox because its what I can find near me. It usually costs 15-30$ worth of gelatin powder

This is what you want if you want an exact mold. Its pricey but durable.

I use a plastic bin that one of my kids used to keep legos in, blocks come out 6x 6x16 every time. I suggest looking around for bins/drawers that can survive being heated and cooled as they are much cheaper, although they break easily

First time I made it I just used a bunch of expired Jello (some name brand  but mostly off brand) the wife had & used the Knox blocks recipe & put it water jugs.  Worked good enough for my purposes.  Worked good enough for me to actually do it again using new Jello.
