My mom accidentally bought me a resin kit, so i decided to buy a ton of molds and pigments so i can start using it! One of the molds i bought was like this one, and I’m still thinking of a design. Hope it goes well.

Ooohh have fun with it!

Hola porqué no mostraste como quitar las burbujas

@rubym1154 3 года назад

I have a mold like this and I want to make the bottom the top. Can that be done or not? If not it would probably be because of the edges I'm thinking. Your tray turned out very pretty 😍

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

The bottom can absolutely be the top you just cant put handles in while its wet if you use it that way. Half the molds we use the bottoms are the top it's the only way certain techniques like a blooming ink technique or painting on a mold first work! Go for it!

@kimn8685 5 месяцев назад

How do you prevent the design from pooling in the center?

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 5 месяцев назад

In my experience you really can't depending on what things you are using unless you let the epoxy get thicker before pouring. Alcohol Inks will always move more than say micas from my experiences over time. It's learning the timing of the pour and how different media's work together. I still sometimes many many years into this get results that aren't remotely what I was expecting..

@markellwilliams3594 3 года назад

Hi there it’s beautiful! Where did you get the molds from for the trays?

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

Amazon there should be a link in the description this set had two sizes

@fatimasaleh8361 3 года назад

is it ok to use resin for this style of molding? Or is epoxy more preffered?

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

So all epoxy is technically resin but not all resins are epoxy. But yes I would personally always use an epoxy resin for this type of project.

@abzj1598 3 года назад

Will the handles be stable without having them screwed in ?

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

Yes the will they are set all the way in and I would have to actually break the resin to get them out. I prefer setting them in this way to screwing in from the bottom.

@stancristina10 3 года назад

I see some videos people drill holes to add the handles, you didn;t, would this be strong enough? I am starting to make a tray and was wondering.. thanks. Love your video.

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

You can add handles later... I prefer to do them at the time of pouring....

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

If you do decide to drill holes just be careful and try to do it before it's super hard and use proper PPE because the dust will be very fine and easy to inhale and you risk cracking the piece the harder it gets.

@DaRKsKiNSiNSaTioN 3 года назад

What is the white and black stuff your pouring? Is it epoxy with white mica powder?

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

I usually add black dye to my black mica I will have to watch later and double check though! Sometimes I add white dye as well to the whites but I don't think I did here... the drop or 2 off added dye or even ink can give it a smoother color if that makes sense.

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

So it was just black and white dyes I didn't use mica at all on this one surprisingly....

@Justtheaveragebasicnbd 3 года назад

Hi! Fantastic video! What brand of epoxy are you using?

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

I use a bunch of resins.... for larger mostly colored molds like this I like the value of pro marine, but found i like super clear a bit better overall and the price is similar so I believe that will be my main go to for large molds now.

Harika , çalışmaları takip ediyorum, yeni başladığım için öğrenmek istiyorum.Tabii Türkçe olmadığı içinyapılanları anlamaya çalışıyorum.Tesekkurler, selamlar.

@nataliehills8132 3 года назад

Do you find that these trays get “bendy or flexible” when they get warm or are not sitting flat for a period of time?

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

They can in the beginning remain bendy and I suspect if left outside they for a longer period of time they would.

@nataliehills8132 3 года назад

Some have cured for months. I keep my house cold, but live in the AZ heat and if they aren’t flat they will change shape temporarily until I lay them flat. At outdoor venues, they are very flexible. I’ve considered using plexiglass to add rigidity but it might interfere with the look. I’m considering trying other resin, I use Stonecoat Countertop resin mainly, but have also tried Pro Marine as well. Any thoughts?

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

Pro marine will always go back to bendy since it has a very low heat tolerance. I'm surprised the SCC flexes so much. Try doing the bulk of the tray as normal leaving about 1/4 of the mold empty then topping it with just a clear layer with no additives. Epoxy cures hardest with no additives and it's very easy on pieces so large to get to high a ratio of additives. Which can lead to a softer cure.

@nataliehills8132 3 года назад

Thank you for your reply. I just ordered some casting resin, soI will see if that helps it keep its shape. ❤️🤞🏻

I know Im randomly asking but does someone know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid lost the login password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!

@kristencrane3943 3 года назад

Is that 600ml total, combined with the hardener? I'm trying to figure out how much it would cost to make a tray. The epoxy is so expensive!!!

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

Total mixed, epoxy can get very expensive! For this type of tray pro marine will absolutely work as long as you are not going with tons of whites and clear, it's a bit less expensive than some of the others!

@amberasif5615 3 года назад

@@RaesTurquoiseTurtle hi... Why cant lighter color shades be used with pro marine resin? Plz advise 😊

@bhumitrivedi5644 3 месяца назад

How much total resin quantity did you need?

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 месяца назад

I'm sorry I don't recall and I have several trays at this point that are all slightly different.

@aroberts821 3 года назад

Hey !! Where do you buy the molds from ?!

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

I added the link to the description! I had forgotten to go back and do that!

@assataac 3 года назад

Amazon

@lisacapers5853 9 месяцев назад

Q: how much resin did you make and what ratio did you use. Pls tell Lisa 😊😊

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 9 месяцев назад

I dont know the total this was a long time ago I always recommend measuring your mold before pouring for the first time by pouring water in them.

@FJolly86 2 года назад

The tray is absolutely gorgeous but I just wanted to point out that the handle on the left (my left) is crooked

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 2 года назад

Thanks, I'm not perfect 🤷‍♀️

@safrahanan1571 2 года назад

those are glitters and in same time coloers ??

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 2 года назад

Yes

@amberasif5615 3 года назад

Nice video. How much should this tray sell for?

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

The smaller of this mold I sell for $35, the larger for $40 to 45

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 3 года назад

Also I dont know where the other company on pro marine and colors went.... I don't like using this pro marine for light it white because it doesn't have a uv protectant in it... although they do have a new version with a uv protectant now I believe

@courtneyjackson6921 2 года назад

You don't torch it or use a heat gun?

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 2 года назад

Not usually for my molds I just spritz them with alcohol if anything. I've accidentally fused the epoxy to a few coasters molds using heat before and I'd rather not risk it so if I do torch it's fast and nowhere near the edges

@courtneyjackson6921 2 года назад

I also noticed that it doesn't seem like you have a mask on either. I don't wear one either but if it's low VOC are they necessary?

@safrahanan1571 2 года назад

how much resin this mold consume ?? in grames

@RaesTurquoiseTurtle 2 года назад

I honestly don't know.
