    Anyone here dabble in epoxy resin, regardless of the project?? I've done a few EDC trays/valet trays/catch all trays/pick a name.... but lately started doing a few skulls as well.

    I have an interest in resin fabrication and incorporation projects. I am attempting to complete the projects 90% complete before starting new ones and the new ones list is too long.
    There are ways to eliminate air/bubbles I have seen.
    1. Vacuum chamber 2. Torch the surface 3. Specific chemical sprays that eliminate air bubbles.
    I did a resin coating in the fuel tank several years ago. I assume it was successful, the truck is still running as of yesterday. I have some other projects I want to pour. The resin for the fuel tank developed a lot of reaction heat. The thickness of the pour I want to do will require a cool reaction.
    Thanks for the post.

    Those skulls are too cool. Do you sell them. I’m gearing up to do some resin work with guitar bodies. I’ve got a fee molds too. That stuff is just so expensive.

    Very nice! I've thought about integrating resin into woodworking but I have not yet done so. Do you have recommendations on the best places to buy supplies online?

    I try to work with anyone that wants one, and try to create what they want. But short answer, is yes and if you're interested in one... you can reach out thru Bayoushooter.

    One of the skulls has sea shells from FL, one has broken glass, one has fragments from stamped/cut keys and the obvious, 9mm casings. Next will be a Callaway golf ball on a tee.
