Metal fab, body work, resin casting, paint and video done by Rick Valdez @juiceslickrick The soundtrack is from the movie Red Dragon and the ending song is from Silence of the Lambs by Q Lazzarous- Goodbye Horse.

    I'm surprised someone brought back that old 60's trick of using resin casting on a motorcycle tank. I used a metal dome shaped about 3 & 1/2 inch cup my buddy brought over with a new peanut tank. He had purchased a dried scorpion from a medical supply house. I brazed the cup to the hole I cut in the tank, leaving about an 1/8th of an inch lip, ground down the weld a bit, pressure tested the tank, then using masking tape on the edge so I could over fill the resin, which I did in two parts, the first to hold the object in place and cover his (or her) legs. The next day I finished filling it. .I clear lacquer over the whole project including the airbrushed soften edge around the cup. To be honest it took way too many hours, but he was a Vietnam Veteran I served with, so for my brother it was a gift. A great personal project and a nice job.

I've been thinking about finding ohe of these resin artist here on YT to do a more functional piece where precise placement and extreme clarity is needed for the item to function properly might actually be a challenge. Now I don't k ow about making it a full blown video but I would allow some parts that need to be cast to be shown. It's just a project that needs privacy lol. I'll look for your contact info.....
