Hi,

I finally got around to creating a mould for 1/10 scale touring car, so I thought I would share with you helpful people Wink

I had a brand new body shell left over from me racing days.
This new body shell was the perfect candidate to take a mould from, and I also had quite a bit of Easy Composites Uni Mould System left over from a previous project

So I had all the necessary goodies to create a 1/10 body shell mould!

And some spare time to make a mould and video with some royalty free music, good times Cool
  • Easy Leased the table 2 coats
  • Easy Leased the body shell 3 coats
  • Uni-Mould Tooling Gelcoat 3 medium coats
  • Uni-Mould Coupling Coat (100g Chopped Strand Mat)
  • Uni-Mould Tooling Resin (450g Chopped Strand Mat)
  • Lots of gloves and plastic cups
Here is a video showing the making of the mould.
