Casting Coasters with Shiny Powders! - Prop: Live from the Shop
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- On this live stream, Britt digs up the old shield coaster molds Bill made. Glow-in-the-dark, metal, and glitter powders are used to cast three unique coasters!
For the sparkles, the live chat suggested I should try not dusting the mold. That way, the transparent mixture would be a little more noticeable, since the top wouldn’t be solid sparkles. I’ll have to try this!
I ended up sealing all the coasters with a few layers of clear coat. This does reduce the awesome look of cold casted metal. Normally, I’d keep the metal powder finish with a Metalizer Lacquer, but I wanted the coaster to be protected from lots of use.

faveorite quote "youre not gonna help are you?"..."no im not" lol
hahaha, mine too :)
Those turned out so awesome Britt!! Thanks for a great tutorial on making them. I'm going to have to make some coasters, that's a brilliant idea for gifts.
Glad the video helped! It's a great idea for a simple, one-part mold.
Wow these are beautiful coasters when you see the detail at the end!!!! Amazing job!!! Love you guys!
Thank you!
little tip: when using smooth cast 325. if your mixing tints/pigments add the pigment to part b but do not mix until you combine with part a. This will get you less bubbling in your casting without using a pressue tank.
Good tip!
I know the directions say to mix the pigment with part b completely before combining with part A. I just found with less mixing of individual parts that i would get better castings and less bubbles. I make custom toys.
That stencil is SWEET!
Awesome. Love the red one the most!
Tacos are an essential part of coaster casting
ooh! I really like the way that black one turned out... =D
You guys should mold and cast some dice, preferably a d20
I'd love to learn how to cast dice!
Brittany Doran tried that once. its pretty difficult since you'll always have to deal with the molds parting line
If you ever manage it successfully, you’re under a firm obligation to announce, “the die is cast.”
I think sparkle is the theme of this video.
Yes it is :D
I'm casting a larger sword and I want to tint it translucent blue as well as add the glow powder just like you did (so this video came at a perfect time). Is there a specific ratio or formula when adding the glow powder and tint to the urethane?
Could you tell me how much the Onyx coaster weighs? (to the tenths of a gram). Would help with determining whether it would be cost effective to produce my own coaster sculpts for sale using that material. Thanks!
The green one is the best looking
Great video as always!
Thanks!
Love it. GLITTERS EVERYWHERE!!! xD
It's eeeeeeverywhere!
These are so awesome!!!!!!
Thanks!
loved the 2016 fix! very legit xD
Totally :D
A small vacuum chamber would help with the bubbles.
Glitter? Oh, you mean CRAFT HERPES!!!!!!
Oh, yes. They have spread through the shop.
😂👍🏽 it’s a thing!
Hey Bill, im new at foamsmithing. do you have any ideas where i should start. should i go armor, or weaponry. and what paints would i use with plastidip.
Riley Whelan buy his audio book
I'd start with a small scale weapon, like Bill's Hunter Knife: punishedprops.com/2015/04/13/destiny-hunter-knife/
Thank you guys!
I would try this myself... but last time I used resin I had a crazy allergic reaction and had to be rushed to A&E 😅😅 my bad🤗🤗
Oh no!
It's Taco Time XD. Yes!!! Cool freakin coasters with a lot of great tips!
super cool! and remember..glitter is the herpes of arts and crafts so be careful guys
The glitter has made its way upstairs. Time to burn down the house.
+Luke Cornacchini I remember Adam Savage quoting someone saying "glitter is the herpes of the arts and crafts world". I'm not sure if Adam even knew himself at the time who originally said it.
Can you guys adopt me, and then teach your new 33 year old "son" all your ways?!

Down to one accident a month!
Glitter should be made illegal
