    You don't need to use one of those machines to squeeze the bubbles out of the silicon before you use it ?

    • @AdamCrohn
      @AdamCrohn  3 роки тому

      A pressure pot absolutely helps. But I don't have one and don't have a way to house it. They aren't necessary, there are tricks you can do to reduce the bubbles, but they definitely help.

    Hi! I want to start making my own DnD characters with this method, wondering if that makes sense or is possible? I know there are 3D printing methods but this seems more fun

    • @AdamCrohn
      @AdamCrohn  4 роки тому

      Hey! Anything is possible, and I try to encourage experimentation to see what you like best. I'm not a 3D print kind of guy. I like to actually make stuff with my hands. So keep me updated on how it goes. I post tons of behind the scenes tutorials and how-to's on my Patreon if you're interested. www.patreon.com/actoydesign

    Was that Mold Release spray the only thing keeping the second half of the silicon mold when poured on from bonding to the first half into just one block of silicon?

    • @AdamCrohn
      @AdamCrohn  4 роки тому

      Correct! Some people also use baby powder, but I tried it and it was a mess and made the resin behave oddly.
