BEASTMODE MINIS is a product of Mathieu Charette - founding owner of NinjaPotato Games.
We create innovative, quality fingerboard obstacles using resin, metal and other materials. Our obstacles feature a uniquely grippy base which makes them stick to any surface without the need for tape or similar products - all you need is gravity!

How It's Made
Modeling
First we design our parts on a computer and print our models using ASA. We then use a process called acetone smoothing which eliminates the ridges, making the model appear injection molded. This allows our molds to be silky smooth for a nice, clear finish every time.
Molding
Once our model is perfectly smooth, we create the mold by pouring some carefully mixed silicone into a 3D printed case around the model. Molds must be replaced over time as they slowly degrade with each use.
Casting
Once the mold is ready, it's time to start pouring.
Each resin pour is carefully measured and mixed to ensure a smooth, crystal clear result with no bubbles.
We have two techniques for this stage. One is more affordable and the other produces higher quality.
Our cobblestone technique only has 2 steps which saves us a lot of time. We save money on materials since rocks are cheaper than resin. They look great and the top is quite smooth with the slightest ripple.
Our Riverbed technique is a 5 step process is much more involved and uses less rocks but the top is perfectly smooth and final results look phenomenal. It's like looking at a rocky riverbed through crystal clear water.
Gripping
When the resin is done curing we add the silicone base which we are known for. Because of this, your obstacles won't move while using them. Tape and sticky tack are a thing of the past!
