Although I often talk about health and safety in my videos, please make sure you do your own research and take the relevant precautions to ensure that you are protecting your health. I am not responsible for anyone using resin and not taking the correct safety precautions. Resin is a chemical and as such should be always treated with respect and the manufacturers safety advice taken.

Have you ever thought of using the "black" lights/purple with the glow in the dark powder? Would that work?

Hi Steve! Love your videos! You explain things very clearly. I havea question. I'm a newbie to resin and right now I am using JDiction Epoxy Resin for all my molds. I've heard you mention different types of Resin for different molds. Could you explain the difference and uses for them? Do I need to use different resin for different molds? thank you!

I have a 16 inch led strips that I want to embed in clear resin creating a long rectangular cube. Will the led lights create a lot of heat within the resin and can this create a problems within the cube long term? What is the best “clear” resin for my application?

Is there a link you could share to which lights you purchased on Amazon? We're looking at a similar project but only need one or two lights. We're having the worst time finding something that will work well that isn't 16' long! Thanks!

What happens when the lights burn out? I was thinking about using some small clear tubing to push the lights through so they can be replaced. I do a lot of memorial pieces..would want them stuck with burned out or broken lights down the road. What do you think?
@meganburns4174
@meganburns4174 2 года назад
I personally haven't had led diode lights burn out yet, but I wouldn't recommend using a tube with lights. Not only will it be dimmer, just from not being as efficiently reflected and refracted from the resin (because of the air bubble within the tube) but I think it sounds impossible to remove and replace the lights inside. If the tube is bent at all, I just don't think it's practical. If you're that worried, make your piece along with a stand for it to set on top and have the light in the stand shining up through the project.
