Manufacturing Process | How We Make Your Sextoys

Step 1: 3D modeling

The first step is creating a toy I genuinely enjoy. To do that, I use Blender, an open-source 3D software that lets me design and sculpt shapes I like. With a bit of time and patience, almost anything is possible!

Step 2: Printing and preparing the 3D model

Once the 3D model is finished, I send it directly to my 3D printer using the lowest print thickness (0.12 mm on my printer). But even at this resolution, if you can feel the print lines on the model, you’ll feel them on the finished toy as well. Silicone captures every tiny detail, so there’s no room for mistakes.

That’s why preparing the model before making the mold is so important. To do this, I coat the print with plastic primer and carefully sand it with sandpaper until it’s extra smooth.

Step 3: Making a Mold

To make the mold, I first create or find a container large enough to hold the model laid flat at the bottom. LEGO bricks are a great option, as they allow for adjustable and reusable molds. Once the container is ready, I place the model flat inside and carefully pour in the silicone after mixing it thoroughly.

For best results, I also recommend degassing the silicone before pouring it. Removing trapped air helps avoid bubbles and ensures the mold captures all the fine details properly.

For testing purposes, a cheaper alternative to silicone is alginate (you know, the paste dentists use to make tooth molds!). However, it can only be used once. Once the mold has fully cured, all that’s left to do is remove the 3D model… and tada!

Step 4: Choosing the Silicone

The choice of silicone is very important, as it must be non-porous. If the silicone is porous, bacteria can grow in the micro-holes, making the toy impossible to clean. For this reason, platinum-cured silicones are required.

The ones I use are from Smooth-On and are certified skin-safe. I buy a specific type for each firmness, and the cure time varies depending on the firmness chosen. For me, the options range from softest to firmest: 00-20, 00-30, 00-50, A10, and A20, so I can pick exactly the right feel for each toy!

Step 5: Choosing the Colors

For coloring, a small amount of natural mica powder is added directly to the silicone. The powders used are cosmetic grade, contain no nanoparticles, and comply with European regulations.

It’s well known that mica powders can raise serious ethical concerns, particularly regarding the exploitation of children, animals, and workers. I would never participate in or encourage such practices. The mica powders I use come mainly from Europe, with some from the United States, and are ethically sourced with zero tolerance for exploitation. They are also not tested on animals.

As a result, the toys I make are completely vegan! (Also I am vegan so they better be)

Step 6: Degassing the Silicone

Degassing silicone is a necessary step, especially when working with more viscous silicones, which are often those with a firmer result. During mixing, a lot of air is introduced into the material. If this air isn’t removed, it can form bubbles that create holes in the final toy, making it porous.

To prevent this, the silicone is placed in a vacuum chamber for 2–3 minutes to ensure all trapped air is removed.

Step 7: Pouring the Toy

If you’re using a silicone mold, it’s important to coat it with mold release just before pouring. I use Mann Ease Release 200, but you can also use something simple like Vaseline. This step is crucial, without it, the silicone of the mold and the toy can bond, making it impossible to remove the toy or even salvage the mold. It would be such a shame to come this far and have that happen!

Finally, my favorite and most exciting moment: pouring the silicone! Depending on the order, proportions of the colors, and pouring speed, the patterns you get will always be different. This randomness is what makes each toy completely unique, which I absolutely love.

Step 8: Unmolding, finish and washing

After waiting 4–5 hours, the toy is ready to be removed from the mold (yes, the mold is busy that whole time!). The toy is carefully taken out, and the edges of the base are trimmed with scissors for a clean finish. Both the mold and the toy are then washed with mild soap, and your toy is ready to be sent to you! :)

All this can be very complexe, expensive and time consuming but if you are motivated you can make your own toys too ! Here are the links that will definetly help you in your dildo journey:
