One thing I would have done different is push the piece into the oyumaru instead of the other way around, this way the bottom stays flat and there's no warping when making more.
Hi all, never lose your dice under the sofa again and get good luck on those dice rolls with my dice tray =P -bit.ly/2YYBnfw 15% OFF with Discount Code - MINI15
Necromunda, more like crate anything you want out of stuff that normally gets scrapped! Definitely TRY THIS AT HOME!
Haha, cheers Allen =)
I been saving all my old sprues and using sprue goo to make homemade stuff since I first got put on to your channel! Most recently, I used sprue glue to make the wings of a 90% scratch built custom transport craft for my Death Company!
Thanks for being such a great inspiration - I love your videos and tutorials!
I'd like to see pics of that.
Hey thats awesome, join discord and show it off to everyone =)
@@MiniatureHobbyist yeah- it would be worth joining discord just for that!!
How is your ventilation m8?
You dont want painters disease.
Maybe you can use the stuff that is used for motorcycles too. If you know what kind of plastic the sprues are made of, maybe you can find way more at a scrapyard.
Greetings,
Jeff
Hey, Jeff its good here, plenty of ventilation =)
Good use of official GW plastic.
I believe blue stuff is the same as hot glue stick, it might be a good idea to experiment and have an even cheaper way to make molds
I have tried glue sticks but they are much firmer and it can be difficult to get the casted piece out =)
@@MiniatureHobbyist I see, I'm gonna try then to put some release agent like talc powder or something like that. I'll let you know if it works
I'm planning on doing this with gundam models Specifically the head and torso of the astray red frame with flight unit, Because I had the red frame I have the blue frame second L gold frame a.m. and the red frame inversion I still need the green frame So I'm gonna use blue stuff and Melt down a bunch of the sprews From the runners Because it's just p l a Plastic, I finally got acetone but I still need blue stuff
You can run the mould under cold water for it to set in seconds. Also........... Milliput! 😉
These look great. Open a tin if applause.
Anybody (esp in UK) - are there any everyday junk items made of sprue-type plastic that can be used to feed the goo blob?
Not sure if this is covered (if so I completely missed ir) but I've been trying some simple molds but have two questions.
1. The drying time seems to be a lot longer then I expected based on this video, is there a rule of thumb or should I just feel if it is hardened and hope for the best.
2. Sometimes it feels like there's air stuck in the goo, what is the best way to address those or how do I prevent them at all?
Anyways appreciate all the videos and information you provide so thank you!
Wow that looks interesting! There's a bit of warp to the surface but it sells the idea of old damaged metal tiles.
No mention straight away of safety highly carcinogenic fumes acetone and plastic. Need a respirator highly ventilated area
How flat do these come out? They look slightly uneven, is there a way you could think of to ensure they're a bit flatter, now that you've made a bunch?
Have you tried styrofoam cups/plates in acetone? I've heard it has similar properties to sprue goo.
imagine plastic forge world parts with this
i would use bluestuff moulds with lego supports
Sorry, I have a problem with my melted sprues, it's full of bobbles. And I want know, what do you use for melt it? Acetone or something similar?
pure acetone from the pharmacy does it
my first attempt was with some nail polish remover i got at the supermarket that had all kinds of aroma and other stuff added in with the acetone, and that did not even melt properly until i added the pure stuff
but it then still started to bubble like a waterpipe during hardening
How does sprue goo go in a pressure pot? Do you think it would remove some of the air bubbles and work for tighter details?
Not sure as the air bubbles are left when the acetone evaporates, plus I dont have a pressure pot to try lol =)
I only ask cos I know that is what they use in resin casting to fix the same issue so it would be interesting to try. Sadly I don't have one ether so I can't even go try myself and let you how it goes
@@stuartskellams3438 i dont think it would work, the goo thing doesnt appear to really "flow" so even if you were to compress the bubbles the goo wouldnt fill in the void
If you leave them on the top side to dry, take some green stuff,model some pustels, goo and tentacles on it - Nurgle infested tiles! 😊
Haha yup that would look cool =)
Good to know that bleustuff is acetone resistent
yup its pretty good and reusable makes it amazing =)
Face down one could be heavily acid damaged areas or hazardous areas
Yup its worth keeping and still using =)
Could you do this with a relief mould? So, you'd print a 'stamp' (or inverse relief of your tile), then push/imprint that into a large rolled-out sheet of sprue-glue. I just found your channel, and love it! Subscribed! But I was wondering how the relief-print might work, could speed up the process! I'm imagining you could make a grid for tiles, even a 4x4, apply/roll/flatten your sprue glue across that and then press your relief into those one by one. Cheers
How many rolls did it take for that 20 right on the center of the dice tray 😂
too many lol 🤣
Brilliant idea
What a coincidence that I should stumble across this channel just as I was (reluctantly) getting ready to let go of a big stack of sprues I've had building up over the last few years. You've saved me from making a big mistake, lol.
Discovered your channel and loving all the suggestions. Question can your sprue goop be made from Gunpla runners? As in ACetone will melt it? Not sure if the plastic of 40k sprues is the same as Bandai Gunpla. and will react similarly.
Either way you have convinced me not to throw away my sprues and ending up in a landfill. Always up for greener solutions. Our planet is already suffering as it is.
Keep up the great work!
More titles!
Love your videos❤️. The details will improve if you dp the form in lego(like a frame) and then you do the imprint of the part you copiying you should make a “stamp” fitting the frame and then you will get more even presure in the mold giving the imprint more detailed. Usinf the”stamp” when adding the pressure in the styrene the pressure vill help to create a better copy.
Solid tutorial. Do you think using a vacuum chamber could help to prevent some possible air bubbles forming on the surface or is the plastic goo too thick for it to work?
I thought about using sprue goo with blue stuff once i run out of milliput before, but I was worried about the residual acetone doing some chemical nastiness with the it
did you notice any adverse effects to the blue stuff or was I worried for nothing?
edit: oh look you even address that later in the video
awesome presentation mate, thanks
Poop-emoji so i can hear you say
"Sprue-goo-poo"
Haha =P
I watched and commented. Happy now? ;-p
always =P
brilliant! i gotta make me some stuff out of the hundreds of sprues i collected.
What percentage strength acetone are you using MH, also are those non latex gloves?
Personally, I use 100% acetone (I get cheap bottles that salons use to mix their own nail-polish remover). Just make sure you're properly ventilated!
Ive tried loads and they have all been 99.5% or above, I use nitrile gloves =)
I'm using 99.5% also. I ask as I have problems with bubbles and air pockets when try to make stuff with molds.
Ya glorious Bar-Steward!! you just inspired me to try making SprueGoo Oldhammer Quest board sections....
Uger the Ogre Mercenary will stomp the Dungeons again!
Awesome, have fun and good luck =)
Purchased some last week to recast my troggoth rockgut legs as the box gives more then enough to make just 3. Long story short. . . . Failed due to my impaitance so I'm casting loads of cobblestone and broken statues for basing. Then my daughter cast some of her figures to make magnets 😀
First time I used bluestuff I hated it but it was due to me being impatient too lol, now I think its awesome =)
Could you cast a non-nurgle model that way to short cut a bit of converting? Seems like it would help nurglefy the original in some great ways. Also wondering how small a model you can cast like that.
Possibly, sprue goo doesnt always react the same, sometimes you get a good cast and sometimes you may get a holey one lol =)
Oh this is a great idea! I've been using oyumaru and milliput a fair bit but melting down sprues to make scenery bits like this is a great idea.
Thank you so much =)
Your a darn mad genius you know that.
Plus these videos are nice and relaxing have a good one
Thank you so much and Im pleased you like them =)
Ever thought of doing casts for other kinds of terrain? Not just generic stuff, but game-specific? Like maybe building a pillbox for a game of Bolt Action, or a fixed cannon for Black Powder or Kings of War.
I will take a look at those but generic builds are good as people can adapt them to what ever they want =)
@@MiniatureHobbyist
Well, come to think of it, they need not be game-specific. A pillbox for Bolt Action is a pillbox that would work for any game of similar scale, 40K included. Likewise, a fixed cannon could just as easily become a sci-fi bombard or Japanese shinto gong with some simple modifications. In fact, starting with a shinto gong and then turning it into a cannon might be the better course.
Just food for thought. You seem to be better at these things than me.
Luv your job mate !! I use same tecniks and more kind of plastik (printer, toys , car pieces ,etc ..) with acétone !! I did lot of mold with silicone + corn starch !! Cheap tecnik for lot of necromunda pieces .
Thank you, yeah I need to try out other types of plastic =)
@@MiniatureHobbyist 🙌🙌🙌
I love the ide you can make it on your big tables to for 40k games
Yeah you can make as many as you need, glue them together or even use magnets =)
Have you ever tried to build/cast a dice with the sprue stuff
I havent but its because the dice may get air pockets when the acetone evaporates making the dice not roll even =)
Good job. I Think i will try it out Someday
Yeah do it =)
Im never throwing away my sprues again
If you do send them my way lol, have fun recycling =)
think I have the same set of zinc dice for D&D 👍nice choice
I love dice and cant get enough lol =)
You are a mad genius MH. Great job :D
Cheers buddy, live stream tomorrow afternoon/evening =)
A quick question,can you re melt the sprue goo if you make a bad casting ?
Thanks,my son and I look forward to making some cool items with your help.
Ive only tried once and it doesnt remelt as well as new sprues, it seems a bit firmer so probably wouldnt work well being casted =)
@@MiniatureHobbyist Thanks that is good to know, so once it has been used this way the excess, like the bits you cut off should be thrown away?
@@shadowandson3550 I generally keep the larger scarps and then use them as junk/scarp bits =)
Once you melted down the sprues, the reused finished moulded item doesn’t seem to set solid?
After 12 hours its back to being a solid plastic =)
@@MiniatureHobbyist awesome to know, many thanks for the reply
Like the looks of these tiless!
They came out way better than I had expected =)
Thank you for this great method of creating homemade stuff i was wondering if there are any dangers in using this stuff, would you need to wear a respirator and us it in a well ventilated room.
If you us a lot then I would advise wearing a mask but if a little then its fine in a well ventilated area =)
@@MiniatureHobbyist thank you for replying
@@tomgerr9359 acetone is also known as nail polish remover. Women use it all the time with no problem. Sure, he uses a lot more at any given point but the most it can do is give you a headache I think.
@@fancifuldevices thank you for the advice, i was more worried about melting down the plastic, in case it cause fumes that could be harmful.
That looks really bad
