[font=Times New Roman] [/font]So far so good[font=Times New Roman][/font] I have decided to go for blu-stuff as my mould as it is cures quick and is more forgiving than other products I believe but is also more expensive but for the small stuff I want to do at the moment that is fine. You can get it from blu-stuff. Com or form eBay.
Being impatient I got hold of some blue-tack and a small container t start my firs mould. I layered the blue tack at the bottom of the small container and pressed the parts in to it, trying to ensure that they whey where halfway in .
then I mixed equal parts of the two parts of blu-stuff and pored that in over the top slowly. The hole time trying to minimise air bubbles. You have to work quite quick here mind. One I was all poured in I have it a good tap on all sides to ensure any air bubbles where loosed. It should be ready in about 20 minutes but after 10 it had already set quite well but best to leave it the entire time.
next up if this all worked well then I should be able to pull the mould free and then remove the blue-tack and poor more Blu-stuff over the first part of the mould I did (leaving the parts in place).
Will need to cut some channels in there but this is really just a test run to see how much detail it holds and if I am along the right lines.
I have mixed the top part but in my ignorance i did not add any release agent so it seems to have bonded very so a surgical cut might help else back to the drawing board for another round lol
Not sure when I will get round to mixing the resin but soon I hope but better get this part right first lol
