| About 10 minutes later the curing process is well underway and my faith in chemistry restored. I always have serious doubts when I first pour the clear mixture in the mold. |

| The two parts have been shaken and then allowed to sit for a minute or so. I poured in 1/2 oz of part A and then 1/2 oz of part B and have gently stirred the mixture with the stick and it still has a slightly milky look but that's OK. Instructions are included with the resin. The idea here is to get rid of all the tiny bubbles. |

| As per your request...Micromark.com has lots of goodies for modelers. This is part of the casting stuff and there's more but this has what I use. Following is a "how to" on using the stuff to make casts from the plastic pieces in typical balsa and tissue kit. Perhaps James can put it in the official place...:-) |
