Gloomisman Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 are any of you making these or have tried it? What brand of epoxy resin are you using? I'm looking to make a strong jig head with extremely light weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBlaze Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Haven't tried an epoxy head, I didn't have the patience to wait on it to cure. Hot Glue works well and cures quickly. Not the easiest thing to get out of the mold,but it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atijigs Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 I have been playing around with polyester resins. I can't vouch for the durability yet. The epoxy resins will yellow which should not matter if died or painted.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atijigs Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 I tried casting craft. I purchased it at Micheal's craft store. It is expensive. Very technique sensitive. I also found out the hard way that it will eventually set up in the can without catalyst. Best used in silicone molds. I had a very hard time digging it out of a couple of aluminum molds.. It comes out crystal clear. Dyes are available for it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy69z Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 what about the amazing casting resin, sets up in about 10-15 minutes and comes out white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
