what's a boy to do?

[penmanship]

Looking for some input and this is a great place to get alot of helpful advice. I'm looking to do so clear acrylic castings. The problem is I do not know what to use....(up here in Canada), or where to get it (up here in Canada)

What's a pressure pot? Do I need one/is it necessary? Are there different types of clear acrylics? Are there good/bad acrylics? etc., etc..........
Is there somethings I need to know, and haven't asked the question.

I would appreciate any assistance anyone could provide..........

Thanks,
Tim

Expensive but Michaels' offers casting resin. A PP (pot) is not a requirement to do casts but it sure helps (minimizes air bubbles). Others will chime in with other useful tips.

The most useful tips are in the Library! I poured through this for days, and then I did have a mess of questions. I've only been doing it for 2 months, but that's every day, and I'm making good progress.

Read up in the Library and Forums. There's a lot of treasure scattered around up there, free for the taking!
