Casting Resin Crystals

[darth_chasm]

I was able to unload a few of the crystals I made so I am actually on my way to pick up some more supplies to experiment with. Or it could be I just like going there to see C-3P0 and R2

Monkey-ing around with this a bit more. This new batch of resin cures even faster so I am able to pump out quite a few in a short amount of time.

I haven't tried the green dye yet so I went for that with green leds embedded. Also did another experiment with particles that turned out much better. And I wanted to try out some cold casting. Of course light wont shine through those but I wanted to see the results.

Oh, and I am making a mold of a Pez Yoda head right now. I am going to throw in an RGB to see what it looks like. I'll update later when thats done.

They look like tiny popsicles! Mmm!

You know, on the appropriate forums, there might be a market for those crystals...

what about using something like this instead of Resin? http://www.homedepot.com/p/Mod-Podge...Q&gclsrc=aw.ds

Its basically a glue. I suppose you could use it but have no idea. I'll probably stick to resin.
