resin casting ????

I was seriously thinking about casting some parts that i've scratchbuilt in resin for my own use. But here is the problem i don't even know where to begin on doing this. My questions are, what do i need to start doing this? If i need to build something in order to do this would someone help me out on that matter? How do i go about taking a part and making a mold of it? And any other questions that i can't think of right now. Thanks in advance guys any info will be much appreciated........................*Ryan*

It helps to look through the stickies. :)

just a side note. if you have a hobby lobby near by. they have now started carrying resin casting kits, they are located in the modeling section. they have a starter kit for under 30 bucks

I'm hitting up Hobby Lobby model section hard next week. 50% off of all models. Going to get some more tuners, like the Golf, Eclipse, and some others. They just reset (changed the aisle and added new/more products) the aisle a few days ago. Will probably start trying to mod the bodies more succesfully and get a resin casting kit and gloves. So much to do with a job which pays well, college money, and 50% off sales.

They also got the 1:6 32 Coupe for like 70 bucks before sale, only two were there when they were reseting. Even though I would like to, I will NOT be taking orders and shipping them out, sorry guys.

1:8 or 1:6?

Who makes the resin set at Hob Lob?

I can go in tomorrow morning and see who makes it. Hopefully they do have the sale going on. My mom said that it was coming up, she does work there, so add an extra 15% off if she buys it and I pay her back...Oh just think of the possibilities.

i've looked at that kit a million times but i cannot remember for the life of me who makes it.

While I go in tomorrow, I'll see what they have in stock, when the sale starts, who makes the resin kit and who makes the 32ish coupe kit and what size it is.

i beleive that coupe is revell, and it is a 1/8th
