I have a set of those Resin Savers too - it was a gift, and it's a really cool thing! All I need now is a pressure pot! Saves a lot of resin!  Cool Blanks, Les! Andrew |

Very cool blanks Les. I'm still trying to decide if I need to put the resin saver mold on my list of things to get someday...they certainly look very useful if you are going to cast your own PR blanks.
So, like Tim mentioned, how do you cut the stainless steel braid to length?

Hey! That guy's just across the river from me! EDIT: I'm struggling to understand something. Those molds look a LOT like they're made from styrene foam... but if they were, you'd never get the cast blanks out without destroying the mold. At $55 each plus shipping, that surely couldn't be true. Are they some sorta' pink silicone? |
