Sorry a bit late on this one. I bought a hooky foredom and after a bit of remaking it is, so far, brilliant. I also bought a hooky quick release hand...

There are some reusable moulding compounds available, but it's difficult to assist without knowing which one. I've used a PVC-based one in the past...

I think you’ll find that it is the mould that is re-usable not the compound. You knead them together thoroughly till all one colour then press the...
