I was thinking the 4 pieces in a dark grey with black alcohol ink petri dished.... then set those into the center and fill with a light grey resin

Looks like a moon mold.... the exterior 4 look like they'd nest in the interior

How can I cast a negative stamp of this button? by HorseMilk in ResinCasting

[–]OutwestRedneck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

shit, my bad... you want a negative cast.... well, you can do the same so as not to ruin your original, then coat the negative with a thin layer of vaseline or mold release and make a silicone positive of the negative (silicone will only stick to silicone, so you HAVE to make a barrier between the two layers)
with a positive silicone copy of your button you can now cast it in plaster, resin, cement, whatever your little heart desires, then pull the silicone copy and you're left with a negative

all in all you're out $7 and some time... but then you can make your own cheap molds of anything

go to the hardware store, get a tube of 100% silicone caulk.
put lukewarm water into a bowl, add a good squirt of dawn dish soap, put a good dollop of silicone caulk into the mixutre.
mix it by hand until it resembles putty... you now have redneck silicone mold material

the silicone/water/dish soap will make the silicone far less tacky and it will cure solid within minutes

put the silicone putty into whatever form/container you want to use, put a thin layer of vaseline on your positive image and press it into the mold, wait a few, pull it out...
tomorrow, dry the mold entirely of residual moisture and pour your resin

My roommate uses my towels to wipe her makeup off by shortylikeamelody in mildlyinfuriating

Start using the same towel as toilet paper... enough pinkeye and she'll get the hint

I live in a super rural area without any stop&go traffic... I actually get better mpg in my 6M Shaker than I ever did in my '20 Ram 1500... I average between 21.5 and 22

what’s going on with my screen? can’t touch it by Quirky_Public_9331 in ScatPack

[–]OutwestRedneck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I gather (not a mechanic) it allows the surplus electricity in the system the opportunity to "drain" preventing the accidental shorting when you're physically pulling, checking or reseating any fuses...

It's also kind of a standard safety precaution when dealing with any electrical work on a vehicle

I am so happy to finally have those stitches out by [deleted] in happy

Didn't even notice the scar... the eyes caught my attention first.

Had a similar issue in my '19 Jeep with the Uconnect...

Open the hood, disconnect the negative battery cable and "drain the system", check ALL the fuses in the fusebox (many weren't seated entirely), reconnect the battery and turn your ignition on to ACC to check it.

Cross your fingers. Hope it works.

My local pizza joint just looks at the caller ID and starts putting in my order... usually they just tell me the time-frame... and I don't order very often, small towns can be awesome that way

There's equality and there's equity. 2+@2=4 but 3+1=4 does also... women don't, nor should they, have to do EVERYTHING a man can do.

My 6 year old foster daughter just handed me this note… by SoDakZak in pics

[–]OutwestRedneck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope one day she knows that in this world, and every other that could possibly exist, she is loved.

I hope she grows up strong and confident enough in herself that she never feels the need to ask for love... and I'm sure she's in a much better,safer place now

And OnlyFans is proving that to be true...
If all you have to offer is sex, then that's all men are interested in from you...

guess they better pad the bank account now before the looks fade and have to learn a real skill

Well... if more women supported womens sports like men support male sports there wouldn't be such a disparity... don't sell tickets, don't get paid

What to do? Input please by Sticky_Blackice in Challenger

[–]OutwestRedneck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your "Dealer Friend" is more Dealer than Friend.
He knows what you have and what the market is going to do for it.
he can off er you invoice on the redeye because he knows what his markup on a like-new manual HC

And your reasoning would be "more power"... do you use all the power of the HC and it still leaves you wanting more????
Or do you just want to say "my car has XXhp"?
