Adding your dog in the video was a great touch! 🔥

I’d be interested in seeing a more in depth video on making those light covers. Making your own ones at home would never even had crossed my mind, cool project!

I second this, I tried doing tail light years ago and failed miserably.

Silicon mold comes in tin cure and platinum cure. The curing can be inhibited by particular things you cast in it, so if one doesn't work, try the other type.

My personal experience with casting parts like a similar taillight and other clear items like a '57 Ford Truck automatic transmission shift indicator is that the materials for the casting are 'very' expensive! Then there's the cost of a vacuum chamber, vacuum pump and for some products, an oven for higher temp curing plastics. But, at the end of your video, you covered THAT issue! 😍

That's cool. I always wondered what the purpose of the different patterns was on the tail lights. Looks kinda trippy.

The pattern just spreads light out, so the bulb doesn't shine through in the one spot

My hobby is old pick up trucks. More often than not the lenses for the stop, turn, etc. lights are missing or broken, or sun damaged. The steel housing will still be good, but the lenses are kaput. I would like to see a video on making a mold for a taillight lens

Have you considered making a channel specifically for your finished projects to draw in a wider audience and directing them to this channel where your work is explained in more detail?

You might be able to make yellow for turn signals and red for brake. Just so long as they match the DOT rules.

Why not replace the black painted lenses with amber ones?

Did you just pour the epoxy and then press the two molds together? Or how did that work

Sam can you add your resin to the description. Also looks like most of your supplies are out of stock.
