Stands

[Dalboy]

OK not anything fantastic but started making some stands one for holding the blank mould pipes I also cot 6 of each size pipe the smaller are 3/4" and the large are 1", and made a stand to hold 2 cups for mixing resin knowing how I am I thought it would be a good idea. No pictures of the silicon block mould yet. I might even make a vibrating table if my attempts at casting go well.

Where do you think I got the idea from

They are small enough to be stored away when not in use.

I know I could buy corks for the bottom of the tubes but I will turn some instead, once they are done I will have every thing to start well that is when I get some resin and colouring which hopefully is winging its way to me at the moment. This first lot is going to be the most expensive ones from here on they should start to become cheaper, will just have to see

That looks very efficient Derek. Is it ok to use paper cups for the mixing of the resin ?

I have seen someone using them and then throw them away. Will soon find out on the first batch
