"stirring and poking stick". Stop flooding us with technical terms!!! :) Nice work Andreas!

These are really cool! One suggestion: hobby stores sometimes carry 1'' epoxy stickers, which you could stick to the image in lieu of the liquid resin. It might be easier (and less toxic). I've used the stickers and flattened bottlecaps to make different kinds of tokens and magnets.

Yeah I actually used that kind but hexagonal for another project. Put them on both sides of a doublesided print. Works great, but not the same hard finish!

Oh another clear casting product you might try that is a single step product I use for all sorts of adhering of multiple materials is Goop glue for plumbing which is the purple indicated package and Goop makes a general craft adhesive also, but I like the plumbing Goop because it bonds to plastics and metal well and it self levels and cures perfectly clear and bubbles don't really form in it as it dries and retracts. It is also flexible but very tough. Ya would just have to test it for making tokens as I can't speak to how well the clarity of the surface would hold up through the physical friction and handling that tokens go through, as in, the surface would get cloudy or dulled easily or not. It seems though from the comics objects I've used it on,it seems to stay clear unless it gets handled a lot, then it gets micro-abrasions as it has that flexibility property. This would be the main issue, as the epoxies tend to dry much harder and be more resistant to wear, depending on how well it was blended, but some of them tend to yellow and darken also over time.

Nice! Did you try painting the epoxy onto the bezels? I use epoxy on 3D prints sometimes and will use cheap, throwaway paint brushes for it.

Instead of using glue? That's probably a good idea. Will have to try it out.

Do you know of any trays in black or white? I'm unable to find any without the necklace loop. Great video by the way.

Sorry for the late reply but no, these were the only ones I found. Maybe there was a silver version available too.

I imagine for a little extra work you could spray paint them black and possibly clear coat if you wanted high gloss.

Surprised you just didn't use the Dimensional Magic over the top instead of epoxy. I've done that to existing game tokens to make them pop.

Why do you have to transfer the epoxy into a second cup?
@andli
@andli 7 жыл бұрын
There are grooves in the cups I use that makes it hard to get the mix just right. It's more about me being anal than anything else. I got some bad casts at first when I did not mix properly.

A ton probably, the amount he made in the video looks like it could have made 3-4 tokens

If you like the solid feel but want to save time, you can glue clear or colored glass cabochons over the punches instead of using resin. Here's an alternate source for loopless trays: pandawhole com /tray-settings-in-bulk/
