I\'m sorry for the lack of updates on this project, guys! I had a little "Hydrospan mishap" with our first shipment of the material...Basically, it ran with the consistency of molasses and - even in a pressure pot for 2 solid hours - it still had so many bubbles that the project was unuseable. The cured product also exhibits some major weirdness, such as a crap brown color (very odd for Hydrospan) and surface bubbles that ruin the casting. Industrial Polymers has agreed to replace my shipment, but I have to wait at least another week for that new kit to arrive. Hopefully, this time around we can make the material count. I\'ve been contacting professionals about proper ways to chill and pour the stuff for longer pot life, but it\'s just a very hard material to manage, unlike most polyurethane resins that are mix, pour, and cure, and thin as water.
I\'ll keep you all updated if there is any positive progress made on this next casting. Please keep your fingers, toes, and any other extremities crossed in the meantime...haha!
Cheers,
Ryan
