Resin Casting

[confederateinfidel]

Does anyone here do it? I have been away from building models for a while. Wife had a baby, had a wrist injury, and most recently I moved. Now I have my own room just for my junk. Only in Kentucky will you see a room completely filled with guns and models lol.

Anyway, I was wondering where might I purchase the components? Can I buy a *entry level kit* to get started? Also is there anything important I should know about resin casting that might influence my decision before I blow some cash on it?

I have a wierd modeling taste....I like steel wheels a lot, and they are getting hard to get by themselves. Plus I have scratchbuilt a few complete engines that I would rather just cast a new one when the need arises rather than spend a month at a time starting all over.

Any help would be appreciated, I am a complete n00b to resin.

Craig(Rustycab) might be able to help you out. There are some starter kits out there.

You can get one from alumalite for around $70-80 bucks. But beware if you have never worked with resin this stuff sets solid in 3 mins.I have been casting over 20 yrs and i started with it but dont any more,alot better stuff out there.
