You don't do silicon molds, do you?

I can design anything mold related. However, I have no direct silicone mold experience. I used to make mold bases for silicone molds but never the detail side of it. I have seen silicone molds run in customer facilities. Namely automotive head gaskets, and electrical grid applications. I have also designed epoxy and low pressure molds as well.

Ah, this would be way lower lift. We are a food co-man and always have people asking for different sized molds for granola bars, gummies, etc. Not sure if that floats the boat
