.....and I really appreciate the time you put into your customers.....
I have searched the site for help but specifically would like the following information..(no rush as I appreciate you have a business to run as your first priority.)
1. I have been trying to embed a picture in resin (the jewellery resin slow curing one) and I would like the background of the picture to look transparent and the actual picture to look as though it is floating. I did a two step process (two layers allowing the first layer to cure and then attaching the picture - however even using water slide decals - there ends up being a cloudy haze in the background - Has anyone done this before and am I using the right medium?
2. MORE IMPORTANTLY - I have a charm about 2.5 x 2 cm that does not have a base like your toy soldiers or knight - but I would like to cast another one- It is a small toy motorbike with fixed wheels. I am about to order some craft Sil and wonder how to complete the project - again is there any further videos on the subject or help that anyone can forward on please?
My projects are moving forward and I am having a LOT of fun - Lets hope it grows to something bigger and better! :-)
ANSWER:
To have your picture transparent you will need to scan it and then print it on clear film. Enclose your charm with a box or something to prevent the silicone from flowing all over the place, pour the silicone and then cut the silicone mould down one side side to release the charm using a new scalpel blade.Then cut an opening in the base through which to pour the casting resin. All the best with your projects. Stan
Have a great and prosperous week!
