Hi,
I'm new to casting and would appreciate some help. I want to CNC mill molds from PU toolingboard.
For casting I would like to use epoxy resin and fill the mold in vacuum to prevent air bubbles.
My question are:
- Which toolingboard is right for the job?
- What kind of surface finish and release agent should I use?
- What kind of resin should I choose?
I would like to order everything from easy composites.
Thanks for your help!
Best,
Philipp
