Thanks so much. If I could offer advice... Just make sure the edges are a consistent height. Or at least pay attention to how deep you pour it and make sure you don't pour over the lowest part of the edge. That sounds like a no s#!t sherlock, but that's where you want to focus your attention during the pour. If you're uncertain you can do a series of more shallow pours. Also as long as you seal in the bottom with the paint/mod Podge mix then nothing should leak through the cork. Thanks for watching!
My most common cure for warping is to paint both sides simultaneously or successively before the previous side dries. This prevents one side from shrinking more than the other.
I've used a few different brands in the past. some were intended for workshop floors, some were intended for arts and crafts. I feel like it's all the same crap anyway. The only difference I can find is the mix ratio. I prefer ones that have a 1:1 mix ratio. Such is the case with the one I used in this video. To be honest I'm not sure of the dry time. whenever I use epoxy resin I leave it overnight at least, regardless of the brand. Hope that helps.
Nicely done 😊😊😊
Thanks so much. Glad you liked it.
Beautiful work. Stunning.
I’m always so afraid of resin leaking all over the place

@@immersiveterrain Thanks so much for the pointers. I’ll do that with the three swamp pieces I already have nearly finished. :)
Really nice! :)
How do you prevent the cork from warping? I do have trouble with that (used cork for some roads for use in Gaslands games).

Nice looking!!!! What kind of resin do you use and how long does it take to dry?
