Hi there!! I dont know if you will see this comment, but I actually just got this mold today... I already have a resin printer so my intent with these dice molds is to "trap" other resin made objects inside of the dice. Is that still possible or would i need to sand and finish afterwards to make the objects visible?

Seems like user error I have 3 of these moulds and havnt had any issues, i over filled the mould to make sure the mould cap actually had enough resin to "complete" the dice as well as used a coaster to sit on the top, they were also very easy to get out of the mould🤷♂️ I use a home made pressure pot and yeah havnt had any issues with them

@@kephrian I have analyzed this mold carefully, and as someone who has been making dice and molds for over three years, this mold is flawed and has a visible lip that causes a raised face on the “1” on the d20, not matter if I weigh the mold lid down or not. It is 100% possible the flaw is not on every single batch, but it is definitely the one I have and is assuredly not user error. It have also gotten multiple comments from others that have noted the same flaw.
@kephrianАй бұрын
@@ArtemisDiceCompany ok, doesnt change the fact that I havnt had any problems with it on multiple pours, if there is a raised face on the d20 like you said you had an issue with why not just sand it back? Surely it cant be raised by that much? All I know is my friends are happier with the dice I have made over their 3d printed ones which would have a bias to a face which basically made them like fixed dice, could also be where I got the moulds from, I to have been using resin for years for various applications, now I dont mean to sound rude or be offensive but majority of resin youtubers or resin what Evers leave small details out all the time, take ocean pours for example "for perfect cells you need to buy X cell liquid, or buy my perfect cell liquid" not telling people it's simple silicone oil and that's it - I learnt that over 10 years ago, as a panel beater seeing what silicone does to paint, tried it with resin and what do you know? Cells were great, the only issue is then removing the silicone oil from the pour to finish with a top coat as the resin wont stick and will have issues down the track. Any way i digress - point is I didnt have any issues besides my first pour with these moulds as I was skeptical with the thickness and such and didnt put it in a pressure pot, lots of bubbles, but once in the pot - fine🤷♂️

Last time I checked, Let's Resin's picture instructions on the product page actually do tell you to put a weight on it after you put the lid on. I also recently found a few days ago that they tell you how many ounces this mold needs in the product description, and I kinda wish I'd paid attention to that sooner...\: I've also wondered what the reservoirs were for the longest time and used to think that they were just trying to save silicone, but I found out one day that the lack of silicone in those spots are designed so that you can completely pop it inside out. It makes it easier to clean, and I'm sure it would make the dusting technique you used easier, too. They wouldn't be able to stay 'popped out' without the spaces, so you'd be fighting for the mold to stay while dusting it if they weren't there. I've had a few pours w/this mold where the lid wasn't down far enough because I was afraid that if I pressed on the lid too much, I'd warp the shape of the dice. Those ended up having too much excess on the 1 sides that were too much trouble to sand down. Pressing the lid down all the way and putting a weight on it makes a thinner section of flash and less cleanup. (Except the D20. %100 that is a flaw in this mold no matter how perfectly you do the pour. I'd just rather deal w/sanding down that one number than hassling w/other beginner/amazon molds I've tried that just suck to use or require too much cleanup.) Besides the D20's 1 side, the only other major issue I have with this mold is bubbles, especially on the higher sided dice. Even if I can pick out all the bubbles hiding in the numbers and corners, any bubbles or micro bubbles left will rise and get too easily caught under the top dice faces on the D20 and D12 that are immediately next to 1 while curing. I also couldn't pop those surface bubbles before putting the lid on, because they were stuck under the silicone roof and I didn't know they were there. I don't have a vacuum or pressure pot, so I can't say how much these would help fix the issue.

I’ve been using this mold for a while now. All of your issues you had with it are 100% user error. No release spray, no weight on the cap, which by the way won’t crush the mold and removes your raised face problem.

Thank you for this vid, but I ask myself how you keep same size on all faces? I tried your method with sand paper and glass to sand my resin masters , but every time I don't manage to keep the same size on every faces, every time some faces are smaller/taller than others because I didn't sand them exactly the same time/the same way ... If one face has got different size my master is ruined because I cannot fix it , it is a nightmare! It specially the case on D6, I tried 4 times and every time my D6 wasn't perfectly cubic at the end😟

UV resin and regular resin dice goblin here- these molds (and the little ones mentioned in the intro) are intended for uv resin, that’s why they’re so thin. Yes, Let’s Resin does a crap job of making sure the consumer understands that.
@ArtemisDiceCompany4 ай бұрын
Hm. I have been making dice for over three years and I didn’t realize people used UV resin to make full dice sets. That would be so expensive, and it would be so much harder to avoid bubbles. Interesting.
@phigmentor13 күн бұрын
@@ArtemisDiceCompany Oh how funny! I came to dice making through the UV resin track, and came to appreciate the other approaches. Because of the curing process, UV dice are *much* faster to make. And I am an impatient dice goblin lol. I don't think of the two techniques as the same, they really are different processes. With UV resin, the pour isn't all at once, it's done in 3-4 layers with flash curing (ie not curing for the full time) in between layers. Once you pop the top on, do the final pour and pop it into a vacuum chamber to suck out any bubbles that may have formed in that last pour. Then you fully cure the whole thing for an extended period of time. With the many at once dice mold, you would take the same approach. As to cost-- It's actually not that much more expensive because there's so much less waste implied.

I got into dice making about 4 months ago and these molds are definitely flawed but ive been able to get some good results from them regardless. I always use the vaccum chamber and pressure pot, lid is always weighted down, and as for the d20raised edge, i just fill the edge with uv resin using a safety pin or tooth pick and pollish off the excess. They definitely have a learning curve but theyre not the worst thing ever
