I need to learn how to make the molds. I am new to resin and dice making and I'm using the cheap molds from amazon. They haven't impressed me so far. I have a pressure pot but I still end up with divits in at least one die per set. Love this video! The swirls are really pretty.
I loved this! This is so informative and I'm really excited to try it myself! What tiny pottery wheel do you use? Did you make your masters yourself or buy them somewhere?
I would love to see the video idea you mentioned, the 'proper way to demold dice' so I won't damage any of my molds. It would be very helpful, thank you! P.s. I love your videos and content, they are very helpful!
I'm curious if you could speak to the advantage of using alcohol ink vs translucent ink? Is it the fact that the alcohol ink "mixes itself"? I'm also curious. If you use just a little tiny bit of mica powder can you achieve the iridescent look while keeping some transparency?
I am wondering if you can do anything with resin castings that don't turn out/are beyond repair. Are they just garbage, or can you use them in a different way? Thanks!
Do you let the resin sit until it’s got a honey-like viscosity before starting the pour? Or do you just go for it as soon as the base colour is done mixing? These look great! Would definitely appreciate a video about demolding, I recently had my first number tear out of a mold a couple of days ago and I’m SO SAD about it. So I’d love to see how you do it!
Newbie caster question: Is it ok to measure A and B into the same cup at once? I've been doing that, and I always use up part B more quickly than part A, because I pour it second. So far my cures seem to be solidifying just fine, but I would super love the input of someone more experienced. It looked like you measured both parts in the same cup at once in this video, but I wasn't certain o,o
The graduations on the silicone cups are not accurate. It's the bottom of the scale that is off. Pour a known about of water from say, 25ml from a medical syringe, into the silicone cup. It does not come up to the 25ml mark.
I've noticed in dice making videos when people add alcohol ink it begins to spread out but mine just stays together until I stir it. Any idea why that happens?

I would love to see more from you. Maybe you could Also some day show how you make your molds when yours are done ;)
I wish you hadn't stopped posting.
I am posting again!
Yes please do a demolding video. I would appreciate a mold-making video as well
I'll definitely make a mold making video the next time I make molds.

I agree, positive vibes, good info, pretty dice!
@@BiGuyJedi Mhm!

Great explanation! Gonna try this tomorrow but with purple.
One question for you, how long do you let the resin sit before adding the ink and pouring?
Nvm there's a comment below that asks the same thing

Do you ever use slab molds to produce lots of a particular batch?
👍👍

It does depend on the set a little bit, but 90% of my sets, I pour as soon as I'm done mixing the base.
@@dragonknightdice272 Awesome, thank you!! Excited to try this myself (once the weather warms up where I am. Too cold to cast!)
@@d20love Yeah, resin tends to be really fickle about heat. Pain in the rump during winter.
