Re: Resin Cars
They remind me of ice cubes. Very cool!
BTW does anyone sell a 356 ice cube tray?

Re: Resin Cars
Latest batch, new mold, some came out better then others. I'm redoing the mold on 2 of them. Still having fun.
Oh, and a one off batch, my niece Lark wanted blue with purple glitter, I couldn't refuse!

Re: Resin Cars
I've started experimenting with color, I got a tip that lite color will help to cover imperfections. This was a little too much color, the batch currently cooking has a lighter coloring. Fun!

Re: Resin Cars
So after the mint green batch I had an idea. What would happen if I added one drop of black to the whole batch? Would it be just enough to mask any imperfections. I like the result. And I ordered better resin now that I'm getting my technique down. I've been using industrial grade marine resin, it's cheap! But I ordered some diamond sparkling clear artists resin, so it should only get better from here!

Re: Resin Cars

After months of making the cups 3 at a time, we poured the tea looking resin today to make Boba Tea.

You cast the molds yourself? Some kind of rubber?
