It is Dreve Fotoplast.
Where did you buy that, Dreve Fotoplast ?

Good stuff! Were you able to get the mold on the right with a wax coating? I was only able to get a bubble-free mold after putting the whole thing in the oven for a few hours, in which the wax would obviously melt. What temp. was the gel when you poured it in? Nice work!
You can buy small quantities from LightningEnterprises.com, I was buying from them for a while now I buy it from Warner-Tech care.
Hi everyone,
Has anyone had success combining an alcohol based ink (Tattoo Ink) with UV Resin and having it cure correctly? I tried mixing a small amount of blue ink with Magic Glos and it just didn't want to cure at all. I also tried a Daler & Rowney Liquid Acrylic ink/paint and trying to use it, and it partially cured, but the paint is still kinda sticky 24+ hours later. I'm seriously considering returning the MagicGlos and just getting some actual UV resin to try.
Also, what types of hdrocolloid have you all been using? I've tried gelatin a couple times and been very displeased with it, It's turned a brown color and it's definitely not translucent. I'm giving it one last shot, then I'll probably abandon that for something better.
Finally, is there any consensus regarding the superiority of MMCX VS Standard 2 pin design? I seem to be seeing lots of MMCX and lately, and since they're both cheap and easy to source from china I'm really just interested in the better design. Thanks!
I added a post a couple pages back (http://www.head-fi.org/t/430688/home-made-iems/5400#post_12950747) about using ballistics gel with very good results. It might be a good option for you.
Good luck
Hello all, quick question for everyone. I've been using Krystaloid for my duplicating material with great results, I've also used gelatin when I'm out of material with great results, however, I stumbled across information about agar powder which is a high strength gel similar to krystaloid and gelatin. Has anyone used agar for there colloid/duplicating material??
It appears to have the same prep as both hydrocolloid and gelatin and its readily available. I did order some just to see but thought I'd reach out to everyone on here as well.
Hi Shilohsjustice,
Where did you happen to find the Krystaloid? I've looked all over Lightningenterprises but not seen it there on the website. Is it something you have to call and request? Thanks!
I've been playing around with some abalone faceplates the last couple days, and after waisting half of the abalone I bought through trial and error, I finally found a good techinque to wo work with it. The shell below was just a test shell to try out the abalone.

Great work Shilo!
He probably uses his fancy laser to make the tree and uses some kind of acrylic paint or gold leaf to fill it.
The abalone could be the thin ones ready to use for nail art.
I am curious to know how he attached it to the shell? Did he made a thin faceplate first and laid over it the abalone and glue/used resin to attach it. then added another layer of resin over to cure it, to finally glue it to the shell using uv resin...?
Or did he used the abalone directly to attach it to the shell and used some resin over it...?
Well, only he can answer.
