This is the best video I’ve seen on this topic; however, I also don’t understand some things. I think I can use this info to attach my resin statues to the bases I have. Thank you for the video!
Hi there Zhkis! Thank you very much for the video. It'll help me a lot! I'm having issues to keep the bar of small resin sculptures firm onto a wooden base (1 in high or so). Can you please tell me the brand of the polyurethane foam spray for gaps & cracks you're recommending, please? Thank you!
Hi. Informative but I’m a wee confused. I have a 45” hollow polyresin statue. Is the foam supposed to fill the entire statue or is there a certain amount to put in to make it heavy enough to hold? Thank you
Hi Amy, I would use a whole can of spray foam insulation.As was the can is opened and used it can be used again at a later time. As it hardens the outlet of can. So I would fill it up as much as you can with the whole can. I would then put a piece of duct tape over the whole country in the piece right side up again to let all the phone settle to the bottom. They make two kinds of foam insulation one is for gaps in cracks and the other is for windows it doesn't expand as much. So I would use the more expanding one, that is the one for gaps in cracks. It will take a couple days were to dry inside the statue maybe even longer since it is now a sealed environment. After it dries I would insert your Rod and see how firm it sticks into the foam. It is still seems wobbly I would remove the Rod. There would then be of course the whole were your Rod was. At that point I would add the gorilla glue which is an expanding polyurethane and will grab the Rod as it dries. I hope all that makes sense. Mike
I would use a ceramic tile bit and not a masonry bit. The ceramic tile bit is designed specifically for ceramic glazed tile. They come from sizes 1/8 of an inch to 3/8 of an inch in size and can be found in most homes centers. I do believe however freight also carries a set of them as well. These bits are shaped a little different than a masonry bit and that they have a triangular point on them that is tungsten carbide. Just go slow through ceramic. Good luck hope this helps

would you please explain the method of Drill and Sleeve that is used for mounting museum artifacts
An empty paint can filled with cement works pretty well too

Would a masonry bit be able to drill through glazed ceramics?
