Awesome!

I agree!

Our pleasure 😊

Thank you so much Lee😀

This is great advice. We should also stop playing resin. So hard to process and hazardous

What you on about, mate? I'm doing a line of it now and I feel fine!

@@JacobVoOperayes although I find the Forgeworld sculpts really endearing plastic is a superior medium. You can get a lot more detail and there’s much less hassle before you get to paining

All dust is bad to breathe in including the normal plastic dust. But, do you have a source on this? I'm pretty sure once resin dries it's not any more dangerous than sawdust. Bad to inhale large quantities of but it's not going to kill you instantly. Most at risk without the proper equipment are commission builders/painters etc. If you research this there's plenty of examples of people claiming this with zero sources or evidence. Kind of just a self perpetuating myth it seems. I'm obviously open to any actual sources you have proving this is more dangerous than any other dust type and not trying to call you out but if it is indeed false then we need to stop spreading the myth and having people freak out if they sanded one resin model and forgot to wear their mask. I am obviously for wearing a m95 or respirator when needed as I do myself any time I'm sanding anything but just want some clarity on the claims surrounding resin dust.

@@Funko777Yeah for the first couple months of my hobby I thought resin was the hobbies equivalent to cyanide

...and we are glad you are here 😊

Thats the worst part of resin. You cant be sure whats actually part of the model and whats flash. Took my like 2 hours to assemble Horus the other day because I wasnt sure what to cut/scrape.

i stopped buying finecast because i didn't buy the mini to sculpt it again, lol. hellbrecht is made of little supports.

We have that one already penciled in! 😀

Glad you enjoyed!

It's our pleasure and thank you for taking the time to comment.

@@DuncanRhodesDRPA no problem. Thank your for taking the time to teach

Source? What makes it worse then normal dust? No body I ask can actually prove this. It's just something they heard. I say wear a mask any time you're sanding anything but people seem to believe only resin is dangerous based on the fact it's ingredients are toxic....when it's poured and drying. Not once it's solid. The same can be said about plastic.

Good idea to wash plastic kits off in the same way, especially those made from soft plastic which often ‘sweats’ off an oily residue.

All dust is bad, resin or plastic. Hobbying with a mask is the safest thig you can do when filing, sanding, or cutting small pieces of models.

Yep all dust is bad, but especially resin dust as it's carcinogenic.

@@andrewdowns9047 I have all my hobby stuff in my room where I sleep/live, should I do cutting/filing somewhere else?

@@fin4314 Yeah, You want to do it outside. Cutting, is not the issue, it's when you start your grinder or sanding of the model that the issues come up with the dust. Small files, shouldn't be a big deal, but if you are running the Dremel, or any of those sanders, That fine dust you breath in. "If your smelling it, You're Breathing it" was what was told to me.

forgive my shit english the risks have been exaggerated over the years thanks to the resin industry becoming acutely aware of worker health being at risk. the phone game has been played to the point where some people think being exposed once or twice is enough to increase your risk of late life lung cancer significantly. our lungs are actually very good at expelling fragments of muck that gets into them, the average person can mess about on a dusty field an entire day and just expell it with 1-10 coughs. however, with resin, your body has a much harder time. it's far from impossible for the lungs to deal with it, but it's riskier and there's a much higher chance of harming you than typical sediments. the main complicating factor is simply time: it takes longer for your lungs to get a sharp, brittle, rough and frictional piece of particulate out. however, the health risks that are actually concerning only truly appear with chronic exposure over a very long time and when you work with resins in a rawer form (say, an entire career working with resin production hands-on). when the resin has cured, it is now chemically inert. it is still a nasty particulate for the body, but not an effective poison. for most hobbyists, that means wearing some kind of mask or face coverage simply because it's better to be safe than sorry. we can recognize that it's not asbestos though and won't affect you if you're only sanding once a month with a fan in the room, even if your face was right up to it! i've known fellows who use their gas masks from the army with extremely expensive filters bought for their own money. immersive, maybe, but inconvenient. but, i don't want to ease everyone's fears too much. it's worth noting there's other reasons you don't want to inhale it besides lethal chronic health risks, namely that you can develop an inconvenient allergy, get a bad cough for a little while, the smell can get "stuck" in your nose for a while, etc. there's also people with health conditions like COPD that are much more severely affected, though it's unlikely you could have a respiratory illness and not know about it and what you need to avoid. still, a few people have accidentally died from it in extreme edge cases.

True! Although with every model FW sells you do get detailed instructions on how to use and prepare their resin

You’re welcome 😊

Firstly, happy birthday 🎁🎁🎁, secondly, we are glad it helped 😊

I like Gorilla superglue.

@Yeah No That's my superglue of choice also, here. Easy to control and does a bang up job!

Mortarion, try TAMIYA brush on glue, that might help..?

Gorilla Zkittlez is banging.. ...wait a minute...that's a weed strain....LoL 😂😂😂

Then this must be a sign, surely! 😀

Certain 3d resins are soap washable but others require specific cleaning machines

Just use whatever you use for washing your dishes. Seems to work better than liquid soaps for washing hands. Just make sure the water is fairly warm.

Thank you for taking the time to comment and for the kind words. 😊

I love that I found Creature Caster just for the Canadian pricing. It's so rare to find cool miniatures online and have the sticker price actually be what I pay. Always USD or GBP, so I feel your pain.

@@KRdHaene yeah I wish they would have a wear house close to Australia maybe "oceanic" zone where it's cheaper on shipping and aussie dollars listed on the site.

Try use an emery board and gently sand them down

Economy of scale. Resin kits sell in much smaller quantities than plastics.

If left in the sun , it is a possibility for sure

yay

get some plummers pvc glue from the hardware store.
