Originally posted by ericx I'd hate to post about something that's been mentioned before, but I can't seem to find anything on it with search, but since you guys are already on the topic, here it goes: Where can you get resin? Home depot/hardware stores? How do you mix it? How do you form the enclosure? A link with these answers would be fine. p.s. Looking good, Silv Blt. If my project turns out half as good I would be happy.
I get all my supplies from here(link below), they ship fast and are really cheap. They sell just about everything you need. As for mixing it, it will come with the needed directions and from that site, it comes with measuring cup for hardner if you need it to be percise. Rule of thumb, 1oz resin 7-10 drops hardner and that is for about a 15-20 minute batch with low humidity and shop temps between 58-75. More hardner the faster it will set. A plastic cup/bowl works great for mixing in, a key though when you first start working with it, go a little light on hardner as it will give you extra time to play around. As you get better you can mix a 3 minute batch, speeds up the whole process quite nicely Enclosures, looking good btw
