Improvising Tips and Tricks

Here's the only mold I was able to make. It's the middle of winter here it hardens quickly when I get it out of the hot water.

I also bumped into some problems mixing the resin. I wasn't able to pour the resin in small amounts because I forgot to purchase a syringe and I just ended up pouring it right out of the bottle, so there's plenty of wastage as you can see. The mixing time of 2 minutes was halved because it's curing too quickly. I also ended up with some rising air bubbles and I believe that was the result when I cut down the mixing time.
