Can you make blanks without a pot ,I'm just getting into and have no money but want to try and make my own blanks any help would be great.

I take it you mean a pressure pot? Yes, certainly, just go for polyester resin, no pot needed (and it's cheaper).

Although you do need a pot to cast in.

Problem is that Bunnings only get very small tins of clear casting resins.
