Once I discovered the temperature had reached the 50's today I decided to try and do another cast, my 6th.
A few weeks ago my wonderful wife, in an effort to help, had picked up some plastic cups. Now I had been made aware of the problems with using recycle code 6 plastic by PenMan1, but I threw these into my stash of casting supplies anyway figuring they would be handy for measuring amounts (with water) or whatever.
BIG MISTAKE! ![Eek! :eek: :eek:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I forgot, and mixed up about 6 oz. of resin and (luckily) had it warming in a tub of warm water. When I picked it up to add to the mix ....
:frown::frown::redface::redface:
But in spite of that mental fopar I managed to get cast #6 poured.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
