[QUOTE="Dw07u, post: 179839, member: 33343"] So my GF and I got some resin from a craft store, it's designed for slow curing and flows really well, most of the bubbles rise to the top before it becomes tacky. It stays very fluid for about 40 minutes or so in our cold weather, heat helps it cure faster so the colder it is the longer work time we have. Maybe try casting with ice water cooling off your molds? I'll post some pictures later. The resin is some sort of epoxy. We don't have any vacuum or pressure chambers so this slow curing resin is working nicely. Full curing time is 72 Hours in somewhat warm weather. [/QUOTE]
