This is my first attempt at casting. Used some Amazing Resin that I got at Michael's. First mistake was using vacuum like I saw on a YouTube video to get rid of bubbles. Once I turned it down, it was easy to see why you use pressure! Little bitty bubbles turned into big ones. Decided to recast using pressure. Voids were filled. By the way, the colors are purple and pink. Not my favorite work but good experiment in trying to make up for a mistake. Still a little work left. Need to cut down the transmission to get closer fit, etc.

Nice Save! I've been finding some of my bigger screwups are turning into really nice pieces!

But if Life doesn't also give you sugar and water, your lemonade is gonna suck.
