    I really like the cap mold idea for a figure's arms (even though two part molds aren't really my thing). For a time, I was also trying to figure out a good way around the "funnel marks" left behind by the pour spouts (and before anyone tells me to "jUsT sAnD Em OfF", by all means, have fun trying to sand FlexIt90 resin) but thanks to you, I won't have to anymore 😂

      I feel your pain! Those flexible resins are a real bugaboo to sand down, It tends to just ball up

    Thanks for this Uncle Matty! I’ve always wanted to see a long form video of your process.
    Is there a reason why you use tin cure resin over platinum cure? Im fairly new to toy making and nobody has recommended tin cure to me personally.

    • @RainbowYawn
      @RainbowYawn  6 місяців тому +1

      Thank you, glad you liked the vid.
      I can’t confirm that tin cure is definitely better in all areas (eg longevity) than platinum cure silicone as I haven’t used platinum much, but to my experience some of the benefits of tin cure are:
      1) Cheaper
      2) More forgiving to use - Platinum cure silicone often will not cure properly when in contact with glues, paints and other materials.
      3) Tin cure does not require pressurising when mould making - Platinum cure silicone usually requires being put in a pressure pot to get bubbles out which can cause complications if the original parts you are moulding are hollow.
      Platinum cure is often considered a superior product to tin cure, but that is possibly due it being a food safe material. Unless you plan on making edible figures, I’m not sure the benefits of platinum cure outweigh the benefits of tin cure when it comes to resin casting.
      This is only my experience though, I’m by no means an expert. I’d be interested to hear about the benefits of platinum cure silicone if anyone has more experience with it than me.
      Sorry for the essay 😂
      Hope this helps 💚🙏

    amazing work, so cool. I have a question, did you have problems with the silicone curing because of the 3d print resin? I've heard this can happen and sounds scary to try.

    These flex resins only have a 2 minute pot life, how can you do the marbling effect with such a short time to work with rhe material? Thanks for all the info!

    • @RainbowYawn
      @RainbowYawn  4 місяці тому +1

      I usually get around 4-6 minutes pot life with this resin I’m using. If your resin is setting too quickly, maybe try refrigerating the resin briefly before use or storing in a cool place. They set a lot slower when cool 👌

  • @aberdale
    @aberdale 6 місяців тому

    Any thoughts as to what stores or equipment we should frequent if we wanted to replicate your process for our own molds? I tried using materials from Michael’s here in the USA and the molds crack :(

    • @RainbowYawn
      @RainbowYawn  6 місяців тому +1

      Sorry I’m not familiar with stores or products in the USA. I’ve used RTV Tin cure silicone from a couple of different companies here in the UK (MBFibreglass & EasyComposites) but tin cure silicone possibly deteriorates quicker in hot weather. I’d consider storing your molds in a zip lock plastic bag to help keep the juicy freshness locked in 💚
