On this episode of Bens Worx i make a homemade pressure pot for casting resin, i use some simple plumbing parts including 2 threaded couplings 2 screw on lids and a spacer. its important to get the thick walled piping to hold the pressure. in this video i will be showing you that you can get great results from low pressure casting.

Could you find those fittings?

@fivelittlescholarsca118 2 года назад

I've watched and watched so many other DIY pressure pot builds with various materials and I really like the simplicity of this design. Surprisingly I was able to find everything at our local Canadian Tire but give me Bunnings anyday! I will be using ABS though as the 4" diameter (100mm) is non existent in our little town. Thanks for sharing this build, it's greatly appreciated.

@scottwillis5434 4 года назад

Cool design! Just keep in mind that PVC can shatter, especially if left exposed to sunlight for a long time (UV will degrade the plastic after some number of months or years), frequently pressure-cycled or has a weak point, and will throw dagger-like shards.

Just watched one done with a bucket, but this seems much stronger and safer. Can't wait to try this out!

@LolaClark86 4 года назад

Omg. This is the easiest I've seen. I've wasted so much resin bc of bubbles and I've tried everything but a pot was too expensive but with this I cant wait. The fact u can use a bike pump is awesome. I have an air thingy I bought for the old mans garage so I'll use that. Thank you so much

@donvanco3078 6 лет назад

It might be worthwhile to try testing the bursting strength and/or the safety release pressure by putting the unit in a bucket, or a cage of chicken wire, then put it up to full pressure past where you'd normally operate it. Cool test on the cheap!

@BensWorx 6 лет назад

Good idea Don! I’ve made smaller pressure chambers before that have held over 60psi, but it still would be nice to know

@TemplarIRL 4 года назад

MOST PVC has a pressure rating already, typically something over 100PSI

@nathanjaremco1362 4 года назад

@@TemplarIRL that is liquid pressure though, and gas pressure is VERY different, as gas expands/compresses a lot more under pressure, There are TONS of warnings against air pressure in PVC, and rightfully so, as you're basically making a pipe bomb. Though they still aren't super safe spending a 100$ or so on a cheap paint pressure pot would be leagues safer. with things like these some extra cash is much preferable to perforated organs.

@KiwiKeebs 4 года назад

I just tried this with some 110mm pipe fittings from the hardware store, got it to 18psi and got some creaking, then the bottom cap (i didnt do double screw ends) just flew off like a rocket. Safe to say I may have jumped a little. Time for more cement I think!

@MattJoyce01 2 года назад

Same happened to me. I wasn't smart enough to lay it down either, whole tube jumped up, and if it wasn't for the pump hose would have hit me in the face.

@derekturner3272 2 года назад

If you add an inexpensive adjustable pressure relief valve, which you can set from 0-100psi, it will make this setup much safer. Pressure gauges fail and most accidents happen when filling and rapidly overshooting the vessels max pressure. If you stay around 30-50% of rated pressure and have an AUTOMATIC relief valve, it's much harder to get yourself into hazardous territory. But I'm confident it can still be done.... Gene pool what it is today....

This is really cool! Especially the low pressure working as well as it did on such a thick cast! I'm making a fairly large resin enclosure and need a 25 gallon or larger pressure pot/tank. Pretty sure I can get away with low pressure casting which should dramatically decrease the pressure vessels cost!

@BensWorx 5 лет назад

@GENcELL2014 5 лет назад

@@BensWorx Was considering 24" pvc pipe and fittings until I noticed how much they cost 0.0 I'm thinking my only option is to buy 24 inch steel tubing, weld on supports and end plates or flanges and mill a threaded steel lid with gasket/o ring. Or use the over sized wing nuts and bolts approach for clamping the lid down.

@BensWorx 5 лет назад

Have you seen my video on converting a paint pressure pot?

@GENcELL2014 5 лет назад

@@BensWorx Yes, was looking at a 15 gallon CA technologies ressin casting pressure pot with 14.5" internal diameter, and 21.5" internal depth. But even that is to small for the larger castings I'll be doing. Length is good, it's the diameter that is too small and honestly cube or rectangular prism has a better footprint than a cylindrical pressure chamber. Found a company called "PTI" or "Pressure-Tech inc.", they make custom pressure chambers/vessels. Having someone experienced make the chamber is only way I'll feel sort of safe around it when it's under pressure considering how large it is.

can't for the life of me figure out how to get a seal on that lid. epoxy and duct tape were my first decisions, clearly imperfect, but it was better than nothing I guess. I've heard about vaseline, so I'll be trying that later, and I'm also considering something like flex seal or any other liquid rubber type thing. Are there any other potential solutions to improving the seal? I'm also heavily leaning towards filling the lid with silicone.

@bigb333 2 года назад

I don't know if you still are looking for an answer, but for anyone else who comes across this, the haziness is due to the mold surface that is in contact with the resin. If the mold itself is shiny, then the resin surface will be shiny too. The haziness can be sanded down though to reveal the shine.

Hey Ben this is a great little pp for my use. Question? Is the 18 psi the standard or do you normally go higher? I think I remember seeing you use 50 on your tank but that may be too high for this unit right?

@peterencobie 6 лет назад

What will happen if you try it with a vacuum? It seems to me that you pull the air bubbles from the resin instead of compressin them. in a factory where they make carbon fibre or glas fibre parts in combination with resin they also use a vacuum to cure the parts. On the other hand they also cure parts in an autoclave so probably both methods work. But what i like to know is what the effects are in each method. Maybe you can shed some light on the subject? Great channel and very cool projects, keep it up. Greetings from the Netherlands.

@BensWorx 6 лет назад

Hi Mate, hello from Australia 🇦🇺, a vacuum is great for degassing and casting objects that require resin in tight spaces, I will get my hands on a vac pump and do some tests. :)

@lifeandpryce2470 6 лет назад

peterencobie yes i was curious also if this could be used for vacuum or stabilizing wood.

@techguyml 6 лет назад

Vacuum doesn't work with getting bubble out of resin. The vacuum just causes the resin to spread all over the inside of the pot.

Vacuum will cause the resin to overflow....there are some interesting videos on it. I initially though the same thing until I saw what actually happens.

Little update: The vaseline was a good improvement, but unfortunately I've tried multiple times and still couldn't get it to a proper seal. Soooo instead of wasting cash on something that didn't work for me, I've decided to buy the (cheap) paint-version. Modified it today and currently testing the seals with +-45 psi (3 bar). Quick tip for people who are looking for this as well: It really makes a difference to check around online shops. Using the same EAN number i've seen prices between 150 euros and 250 euros for exactly the same model.

Hi Mate, The outcome should be very similar, a vacuum chamber is used to de gas the resin prior to casting, so it should have similar affects when casting in a pressure pot

actually, you'll get horible results when you try and use a vacuun chamber on resin cast. learned that the hardway. 😂 its going to form up bubbles that are going to stay there til the resin cures.

Clarence Saldaña I agree! Somebody did a comparison video on RU-vid....maybe Paul Brown? Anyway, the vacuum caused the resin to froth away. Only the pressure pot worked.
