Hiya from Slightly Sunny Cornwall!

I want to make some largish objects using resin with decor inside...(around cabbage sized, what a weird comparison!)

Can someone please advise me of the type of resin I need...I don't want to have to use heat, just mix, layer and leave.

And is there somewhere to buy large molds? All I can find are small molds for jewellery but I want something bigger.  Can I use plastic bottles?  These would have to be used only once which is okay, but preferable to get silicone molds that I can use time and again...

Thank you!

Karen

Hi Karen and welcome. I would of thought the EC Casting Resin would be the way forward. They also do mould kits so you could make your own moulds.
The technical guys at EC are really helpful. Give them a ring, tell them what you are after doing and they will point you in the right direction.

Hope to see some of your work on here soonSmile
