Yeah, that’s about it, you want less insulation not more, maybe thinner paneling would be good or using some thermal conducting paint on your mould. A fan would also be good to get some airflow and convection cooling.

Almost exclusively, people don't have huge bundles of cash to pay you to do what you want to do. The average Joe is not dropping $20k on a plastic wolf. They have a mortgage to pay and kids to feed. That's why artists used to live in abject poverty, until they found a patron; one single rich guy who liked what they did and wanted to support them. Pretty much every great artist survived by finding a patron. Or they died penniless, with their work only gaining noteriety long after their death.

@thelasttimeitried Жыл бұрын

Regarding the blade breaking, the piece was wedge shaped both horizontally and vertically, allowing a tooth to hook on the top edge and jam. The front edge was also up off the table a little, allowing it to rock into the blade, causing a camming action that helped stop the blade. A small movement as you unlocked the fence may have been the trigger, but the setup was the powder-keg. Pretty amazing to see the blade above the work piece warp as it was stopped, but the momentum of the rest of the blade kept pushing from behind. It happens sometimes that the blade snaps in a different place on the blade and the broken end stabs down into the top of the table, so keeping your hands away from the sides of the blade can save you a trip to the ER! Beautiful work, as always. Thanks for sharing.

As an artist who has also worked a lot with wood and epoxy/resins, I’ve always embraced the “mistakes” and the unexpected results- to the point where I began deliberately creating the environment for the materials to get weird.

But maybe, just occasionally…let it get weird!

@chandarussell Жыл бұрын

I had a wolf as a companion for 14 years (and yes he was a house wolf) and when he howled you didn’t see a lot of teeth. This wolf of yours is obviously howling so the fact you can’t see teeth is quite accurate. I absolutely love this particular sculpture. It’s beautiful. One little caveat that I feel I must add. While people might think it’s really cool or neat, I don’t advocate having a wild animal as a pet. I wound up with him as a cub through a convoluted series of events that ended with me either having to keep him or put him down. Obviously I chose to keep him but he remained a wild animal by nature and his hunting drive was quite pronounced. Having a wild animal, no matter how docile they may appear, requires a great deal of care and vigilance especially around other animals and those people who are not in his immediate “pack”. Despite that he was a beloved member of our family for 14 years and we all adored him especially the kids.

I'm not an expert but what I've seen before is sometimes the epoxy manufacturer changes the chemical makeup of the epoxy which leads to different results than previously expected. Check with them to see if they made changes to the mixture. Blackforest I think experienced something like this and ended up creating their own mix.

@@BMSculptures It may also be the surface area of the pour, or the material your box is made of, if the area the heat can disperse is too small up top (meant as in if the top area is small, and hardens first), or if your box material may be too insulating (like the foam layer), the heat wont be transfered out of the epoxy, even in the cool air of the fridge. I don't know the properties of your materials, but that is my theory. TLDR: Your pour container may be too well insulated, so even though the fridge is cold, it's only the exposed epoxy in the top that actually gets cooled, the rest in the box just cooks itself. Hope it makes sense! Edit: I see you took the temperature precautions for the next pour!

But that would make sense since the lower portion would have had more surface area before you poured the next layers, each with less surface area for heat to dissipate. Smaller pours should solve this….just painful in time cost. Anyway, love your stuff!

You insulated the mold with the expanding foam. I’ve told you before that melamine traps heat as well. use HDPE, it’s more expensive than melamine but cheaper then losing the whole project, it’ll act as a heat sink on all sides to let heat evenly disperse through the walls! You also need to vent that closed freezer to to allow it to offgas. You also don’t brace the mold sides from the outside and all that heat expansion stresses your mold and finds the weakest point which is why it leaks.

You could definitely drill holes for screws though too, if you need to reuse it with a hole somewhere else, just fill the hole with caulk. I'm telling you though, mdf will insulate. Don't use it for big pours, it'll overheat. that HDPE will absorb heat and cold, it'll help the temperature of the epoxy. I guarantee his pours get more clear with HDPE because they won't cloud, they will cure slowly.

Yeah I was looking for someone who'd mention the fact that the offgassing will be impaired because the chest is sealed. I mean, the fact that it exploded makes it clear that the atmosphere inside had a very high offgas content, which means there's less reason for the gases in the resin to move out of the resin. Remember how osmosis works: flow is always from areas of high concentration to low.

Great video! This is just a total guess, but maybe off-gassing from spray foam that was trapped in the fridge spoiled the hardening process of the epoxy (by chemical interaction or increased pressure). Opening the fridge door at different intervals for different projects may have caused some pours to be successful (door open more often) versus unsuccessful (door open less often). Good luck solving this issue. It's a shame when all that hard work goes to waste.

Came out amazing as per usual. Always in awe of your talents. Maybe you've solved your issue by now, certainly the foam acting as an insulator is likely a factor. The other thing is that, at least with the 2 part PU foams I use for surfboard repairs, they give off quite a bit of heat during expansion and curing. That's probably not helping things either. I don't use cast resins but surfboard epoxies but I think if I was attempting something like this, I'd be doing smaller pours just for safeties sake. Maybe cut your pour volumes in half?

“The eyes are the windows to the soul; if your eyes suck then your soul sucks” - artist quote I learned years ago that sticks with me to this day

This is the second video of yours I'm watching and now I understand a bit more of what you do. Absolutely love wood in all shapes and sizes but to see how you turn those leftovers in beautiful cutting boards is truly humbling and I'm glad to see such a precious resource has not been waisted. I also liked how you left the scares and mistakes in there and had a bit of fun with them showing your serious and humorous side which made the video better because it showed your vulnerability. So now I'm at minute 14 and I'll finish watching ❤
