You probably know this now, but in dice making and other resin molding I've learned the Bombs Away method to slowly pour from about 2-3' high, pouring a thin stream and the bubbles usually pop themselves in the process.
Yet another great instructional video. I was just thinking last night, whilst at work, about the Infinity Gauntlet and whether you guys resin print the stones or whatever. This is something totally new to me, so really glad you provided and shared your wealth of knowledge to us mere lower lifeforms, lol.
Thanks for sharing Frank,I will use this a video to help guide me into casting.I will share on my Facebook group also.Thanks Again you have Excellent content.
Thanks! And no. Resin is fragile like this. You’d have to have a very very highly quality resin printer to make a visor. You’d be better off vacuum forming it
That rubbery epoxy is an interesting result. Hmm. I make a lot of fiberglass molds and fiberglass parts for RC Airplanes with epoxy and can say good epoxy cures hard as a rock. 5 min epoxy cures runny like that though. Might have just been the type of epoxy.
I just wanted to say thank you for your service. I can hear the jets going by. Have you tried using transparent filament for the stones ? Oh wait..the infill lines would show through. Unless you have 100% density
Yeah I have but getting nice colors like this is very tricky and requires constant resin changes. Where this method is much quicker and repeatable and cheaper
Oh, yeah that makes sense. I use a similar method as you, but for casting motor stators and transformer cores with a 20/80 mix of resin and iron powder. Outside of electronics, it's a good way to make magnetic parts.
Hey so I don't know if you'll see this but does anybody know where he got the 3d printed stones that he made the molds from. If you could tell me that would be great thanks!!
Seriously the no gloves thing drove me crazy. You can get some serious issues handling resin without gloves. Good work on these though it looks great. Some epoxy resins cure hard and come cure soft though. You have to watch which one you get. That said the resin you have should be hard so I am not sure why it did that. Are your pigments alcohol based or did you use alcohol to clean the container. In general though epoxy resin is usually best with dry pigments. Either of those can screw up Epoxy based resin. The other thing is your ratio could be off, the ones you do in two equal parts are really really picky about the right ratio. It could be temperature but I doubt your work area was that cold this time of year. Funny enough people think they need to add a bit of extra hardener but that is actually what can cause it to get bendy like that, to little harder can actually make it brittle. It does the opposite of what you would think.
I work with much worth things than resin haha this stuff i like water at this point but I’m very safe with it all. And it did harden up a little more but the reactor was still a little too soft to sand; regardless the polyester hardens much nicer for wetsanding from experience
@@FranklyBuilt It is more that it can literally cause an epoxy/resin allergy. It can work as a sensitizer so even if you have worked with it for years you can all the sudden get to the point where you can no longer work with any kind of epoxy/resin because even the fumes could cause you to issues.

The egg crate is a great idea to hold em
This video is on point man. Great music, great editing, and very informational dude. good job 😉

Andy Podmore hahah well thanks man! And no problem at all
One of the best ‘how to’ videos. Thanks for all the details.
Thanks for this tutorial! I've seen your projects around but this is the first video of yours I've watched. Big fan already!!
Thanks so much!

Great tutorial! Very informative. For the Mark 40 Shotgun visor, would you make a resin transparent one from the printed version?
Thanks! And no. Resin is fragile like this. You’d have to have a very very highly quality resin printer to make a visor. You’d be better off vacuum forming it
Yup yes, ah uh, ayyyy wooow. Thank you been waiting for this!

Thanks Frank! Great video! 👍🏻🤛🏻
If you want a galaxy , cloudish look. From my experience liquid dye makes it more opaque, but that may just be the Brand, try powder resin dye
Late response but, instead of using dyes, I think mica powder works better
Great video Frank, keep it up.
Good idea 👏

No problem! And yeah even with highest quality you’d still have issues. That’s why I resin cast tnem
why has this not had a million views, such a good video and so very helpful.
obi john kenobi share away general kenobi!
Have you considered getting an SLA printer for printing solid resin pieces? Pretty sure Elegoo has one for like $200.

I use Lego to make mold boxes for custom Gi Joe’s. Try it they work great!
That’s a great idea!
Do you use clear casting resin in the clear caster before mix it?
Is there an advantage to using silicone putty instead of normal silicone? I just have normal silicone, and don't know if I need to buy the putty
How many drops of yellow did you use for the mind stone. I’m trying to make a stone for my Vision cosplay

They’re from Do3d.com part of the MK85 nano gauntlet

where did you get the stone models?
Where did you find the infinity stone 3D files
What arc reactor file did you use
