It was really cool how the marshmallows turned out looking like a mushroom cloud. My favourite wasn't on your list, but was the Enterprise in a bottle, with the crack that ended up looking like it was intentional

Love the pot cam. The sheer amount of heat produced by the exothermic reaction of mass castings is impressive (and a bit scary).

Hi Ben! I love watching the pot-cam it’s so interesting & seeing the reaction to different materials! I actually had the Gob Stopper as my screensaver on my phone, I showed loads of people everyone thought it was a rock formation of some kind! (I’ve got them to subscribe to your channel) 🙂 I now have the Rubik’s cube one as my screen saver! Can’t wait till your next video! ♥️

I'd be interested in seeing if you could get some cool optical effects by adding small amounts of powdered mica, rutile, or even ordinary glitter flakes to resin, then applying a slight constant twisting force while it sets. For example, if there was a flat plate touching the top surface of resin in a container, and something was gently twisting that relative to the container. The result I'd expect would be that the flat plates of the powdered mica or glitter flakes, or the needles of rutile, would be aligned with the twist direction. After the resin was polished up, there would be internal reflection or refraction of directional light, as one gets with semi-precious stones such as tiger-eye and minerals which show asterism.

I liked the Marshmallow one! It turned into a volcano! My brain immediately wondered if you did that one again? If you used a stick with a thin disk about the diameter of the marshmallow to act like a "catch" or maybe even a couple to sort of create a "billowing" effect. Maybe colored resin discs to create the illusion of fire or black smoke... My brain sees that (if it worked) as an awesome egg, or perhaps even light! Maybe glue some glass fibers up the center post to each disk to light them up...

@julie-annhenderson3591 Жыл бұрын

The movement of the resin while curing got me curious. 🧐 What about doing a layered pour. With each layer only being maybe 2cm, and you drop 3 or 4 drops of colour in each layer and let the natural motion of each hardening resin layer swirl the colour itself?

@BensWorx Жыл бұрын

Yeah that would be cool

@Jack_Wolfe Жыл бұрын

4:29 do that again but this time either mix it in its own central column that you remove before pressure potting, or put it all in before pouring the resin and just leave it how it end up with no stiring.

Great Pot cam footage and it got me thinking can your form a whirlpool in resins and keep it till it hardens like by spinning the resin in a mould really fast and the other idea was could you freeze resin whilst it's liquid and then would it set.

I think my fav was the kid in the mine. I don't remember what color glitter you used to make a part look like an ore vein. But it came out gold. Was almost too perfect an accident. Curious as to what made it change. The heat or refraction from being in the resin.

How come the plastic containers don't melt if the resin gets so hot? Have you had an epic fail with your containers? What about the toys inside your creations....have they ever melted? My favorite was the leftover resin ribbons.

The melting point of those containers is way higher than the temps the resin reaches. It won't even melt the little plastic 3oz bathroom cups unless you start with resin that was already heated before it was mixed (don't ask how I know).

@dennisdobbs1493 Жыл бұрын

So which would work best for resin casting, a pressure pot or a vacuum chamber? Or does the resin have to have oxygen to cure? I've never done casting before and I'm curious. And, if you coated the tie fighter in resin first and allowed it to air cure would it still warp from the heat of casting it? Sorry about all the questions. Thanks!

@prestonbyrd8443 Жыл бұрын

I've always wondered why people who work in resin don't put a sort of resin cap on the top of what will be the blank. I feel like it would be a good way to keep everything from getting out, just in case.
