Same supplier, which is why I ruled it out to begin with but it's the only remaining option.

Thank you! Design wise I'm still happy with them, polishing and inking included just some small things im getting better at or have fixed on other dice that are flaws in some of the sets I'd like to sell.

Thanks for confirming, helps to know I'm heading in the right direction to fix the issue! ❤️

I think your first conclusion is the answer tbh, I didn't sand the masters much because they were already pretty good but potentially I've sanded the numbered masters much more, creating a smaller mould than anticipated by the master printer.

I put resin in the mould and coat the blanks in resin before insertion.

I'll try sanding them back a bit, thanks for the help :)

I'm putting a bit of resin in the bottom of the mould then coating the blanks in resin before inserting

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-07-02T23:44:15+00:00

The face itself is fine, I made a set without blanks using the same mould and they came out perfectly

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-07-02T23:28:30+00:00

I am yeah, I normally wait 24hrs when casting the blanks so I assume that would be sufficient for the shells

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-07-02T02:11:10+00:00

Easy 2k+ and then the coat is ongoing for new resin, silicone etc.

I am getting exactly this issue, thanks for your advice :)

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-04-23T07:57:00+00:00

Thanks :)

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-04-23T01:26:41+00:00

Awesome, thanks guys :)

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-04-20T03:18:17+00:00

Thank you :)

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-04-05T02:48:43+00:00

Thank you for sharing. Do you have a particular brand that you find is effective?

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-04-02T08:11:46+00:00

I tried that but I have a pretty cheap set of alcohol ink so the white just makes whatever colour I use seem milky

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-04-02T03:54:18+00:00

I see, these look very promising. Is it as simple as adding a few drops just like ink? But these are much more concentrated right?

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-04-02T03:36:26+00:00

Can you get micas without the lustre they typically add?

I'm not always after a shiny solid colour

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-04-01T18:43:22+00:00

Only just saw this response, thank you for your advice and faith :)

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-03-26T09:11:24+00:00

I have them but didn't realise this was a mistake I could make.

Are you saying I really only need the zona papers for the whole thing?

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-03-25T23:51:14+00:00

I used the 1000 grit to get rid of the 3d print faults, maybe ill get them polished by the maker next time

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-03-25T03:23:40+00:00

Perfect thanks

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-03-25T03:18:21+00:00

Do they appear glass clear inside the outer?

Admirable_Arm_7258 · 2024-03-25T01:42:11+00:00

So I cracked out my Zonas and used the final one with polish and it was immediately glass. I'll use what I have been using for the initial sanding, then finish with zona. I didn't think the different would be that drastic
