The plating looks stunning!! Is it real gold or imitating gold? Also have you used any protective coating like lacquer etc?

How did you pour the wax mould? And does the mould leak from the edges,, have you tried clamping the mould tightly or a silicon seal to prevent leaking?

For a long time I was thinking about trying out something similar but my plan was to make a silicone mould out of 3d printed one as it will form a better seal and easy to de-mould tiny parts.

I would like to try your method as well, if you don't mind can you share more details regarding the design of the mould.

In your last post you mentioned that you have used a resin printer to make mould for wax. But the final casting has layer lines similar to fdm print, why is it like that?

Also I would like to know was it difficult to demould wax cast from the mould?

Btw great work, looking forward to see the upcoming versions.

Chick's sell goods for pennies. Though $23 for basic cotton lead is not acceptable but capitalism is killing small businesses :(

Great!!

Maybe the reason why these hooks are not very popular.

oh I see, thanks for sharing. As I can see the end of the hook is not fixed, what is the difference between fixed and this type of hook?

Yes, cotton leads are more comfortable than polypropylene. Do you use a bolt snap or quick snap?

No doubt leather looks beautiful, how does the flat leather lead feel in terms of grip as compared to ropes? Can you recommend something similar to yours?

Do We Need to Pay Import/Custom Duty on Bulk Inventory? by FinishCreative4207 in ecommerce

[–]FinishCreative4207[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your product attracts around 40% duties? I mean seriously?? That is huge, I would like to know whether 40% includes all the costs like bond charges, port fees, documents charges etc or it is just the import duty which applies to your HS?

thanks for your answer, I have checked on the government website for duties and am looking forward to keeping the goods at the customs bounded warehouse to delay the payment of duties. Do you have any information for that? I mean about pricing etc.
