[@Vee_of_the_Weald]

Hi Sue, This is spectacular! Love it! And your daughter was right, adding the gems gave it just what it needed to gain that elegant 3D effect. Do you HAVE to use a heat-gun or would a torch work? or a blow-dryer? x

[@SueFindlay]

Thank you, a torch or hairdryer will work just as well. 💕

[@deenaayala2284]

Oh my gosh absolutely stunning I cant wait to do this and experiment! Just beautiful, I have a ? ' what brand of resin do you use and is it the same resin used for all your beautiful pieces? Thankyou so much for sharing with us, again beautiful art!! D

I just want to tell u how much I inspire to get into resin art! U explain everything in such great detail. I just have too slowly buy my pigments and resin because for now we just live on my husbands disability check until I can get mine. Can u tell me what kind of resin u use? I love love this piece.

[@SueFindlay]

Thank you Brenda 💕 I started out with what I could afford and slowly built up my pigments. If you buy quality pigments, they go a long way, so last ages. I buy my resin from U Resin here in Australia, they don't unfortunately, ship overseas, so it is advised that you test brands of resin that are close to you until you find the right one for you.

[@diannefirth1621]

Hi I just seem to get all the colours running into each other and end up with a mess! What am I doing wrong?

[@luannburton3333]

This is beautiful, have you made anything similar to this that is more of a tube? I'd love to see how the resin works out at sets in this form x

[@SueFindlay]

No, I haven't created a tube out of resin. I have attempted to make more of a curve, however, that was a disaster 😂

[@luannburton3333]

@@SueFindlay ☺️ think I might have a go, see what it turns out like, if any good I'll post it, thank you for your quick response, stay save x

[@SueFindlay]

To be honest, no idea. I know there has been people working with resin for many years. I myself have only been playing with it for the past two years. Much of what you see on my channel is my experiments with it. 💕

[@shobhnabagthaliadhamelia2816]

Waaah!!!mast mast

[@Bertelsmarya]

Your work is amazing and you are so articulate in the middle of creating. Bravo! Can I ask how you would attach about six of these bent forms into a single curved backsplash? Can they get warm enough to merge with adjacent panels or am I better off making a mold? Or could I just use grout? What would you do?

[@SueFindlay]

Ooh, that would be a tricky one. Can you form an accurate shape in order to bend your resin around? I would bend aluminium sheets into your desired shape. Then pour your resin into moulds, just like in my video. When semi cured move the resin to your shape to allow it to fully cure. You would have to secure it to the curve to make sure it doesn't move. Once fully cured, I would attach the resin to the metal sheets using more resin (applied with a brush) allow to cure and install the whole piece. Good luck with your project. 💕

[@Bertelsmarya]

Sue Findlay Thank you so very much. We are off to find aluminum sheets. Thank you again!

[@Bertelsmarya]

Sue Findlay If I did not use an aluminum sheet at all in the final backsplash, could a piece like the one in this video stand on its own over time as a backsplash? It certainly looks solid enough. My backsplash would be visible from both sides, so its near transparency would be a bonus. Thanks in advance for your help!

Sue, Love your work. You make it look easy, but I'm sure it's not. I really want to try this! What type of resin do you use?

[@SueFindlay]

I use Resin from U Resin here in Australia. I know of many people using a variety of resins to create the sculptures and have great success. 💕

[@carrollduran4346]

Just recently stumbled upon your channel and I am enthralled with watching all of your videos! My curiosity is is there any difference between resins? Could I use Stone coat art resin in this application, meaning will it Bend? Heart resin and stone coat resin are about the two most popular resins here in the states and I don't know where to begin meaning I don't know which resin to order and if there's a difference between the resins that you use. You just have me so so intrigued by seeing your amazing work! Your talent is undeniable! Your imagination is just genius. I have not worked with resin a lot other than to resin artwork but would seriously love to try and Bend some resin. Thank you ever so kindly in advance for your answer!

[@SueFindlay]

I have never used Stone Coat, however, I do know of others who have had success with it.

[@katiediaz6586]

This is a beautiful piece! what are the size of the acrylic diamond shaped gems do you use? and could u use an alternative? I would love to take a chance and make one

[@SueFindlay]

Thank you, they range in size from 2mm to 6mm. You can also use crushed glass. I will be publishing another video very soon showing it with crushed glass.
