clear

This is a pen I cast a few weeks ago using some hair from My two daughters clippings, I first painted the tubes White then made a blank from clear Polyester resin and the hair. Then I got to thinking, maybe there is a market for babies first hair cut pens. :thinks::thinks:

Isn't it amazing what you find when having a really good clear out :eeeeek: Decided after MANY weeks (ok months) that I should really get in my workshop and have a really good clear out / clean up. Got all the timber in one area now... Yes I know, but I didn't realise JUST how much was...

I am now looking into casting my own blanks and am pickling my brain trying to sort out what i need. Think I'm ok with sourcing a pressure pot, but do I need a vacuum chamber to de-gas first? don't think I will go down the stabalising route just yet. My choice of resins are Zencast P6 for the...

Hi, Sharpy sent me a message this morning but I can't answer him as his inbox seems to need emptying.....is there another way to contact him or can someone give him a shout an ask him to clear out some. Thanks.:rolling:

Hello again. Due to my background in special effects work, and overexposure to polyurethanes, I'm drastically and dangerously allergic to them now. I can't be near them in liquid state, the fumes, cured castings or the dust. Last time I was hospitalized. So, I've been doing some research into...

I've just had a email from Metalclay with revised/reduced prices for there Alumilite Clear & Cactus Juice The prices are looking pretty keen to me now :thinks:

Im looking for a bit of help if possible. Does anyone stabilise blanks to order?? I have some Australian Burr's that I would like to stabilise, possibly 15-20 blanks requiring the "treatment", un-coloured, just clear. If so can you PM me with a rough cost including return postage, ta muchly...

Melanie clear your message box it's full

My first attempt at the new Shakespeare, a burr hybrid bought on the cheap from Dan when he knocked the price down to clear some stock. The cast was a bit clear in places so I painted the tube, I forgot (Im blaming a hangover) to "back paint" the blank, hence there is glue visible in bits of...

Hi All, Big thanks to Forum member Melanie (Fingwe) for pointing out this product in one of her posts. It seems to be a problem getting hold of Alumilite clear in the UK. We can get Amazing clear which is OK but takes a while to cure plus is very expensive in the small quantities it comes in...

Hi This is my first post on this section. I have learnt alot reading the posts in this section. Many thanks. Im new to casting and have only tried Decals. I water transfer onto the barrels, seal with acrylic clear, cast in silicon moulds, and machine and polish on the lathe. These are some...
