I read somewhere that Roto urethanes tend to be rather flexible and can collapse in heat. Is Roto-65 strong enough to do detailed pieces such as the beak of a doctors mask from Assassin's Creed? (not to give too much away here...)
Hey guys. About to cast out some stuff. How much smoothcast is required to cast 1 helmet? Would a trial kit be enough?
Shock\Trooper-2148 here. I read the Forum Infractions, Warnings, and Offenses Thread, and I've got one question that has me puzzled. What is Unauthorized Recasting? I just want to know for my own information. Don't want to cause any harm that's all.
Hi, I was wondering how well this method would work for paintballing? Me and my friends want to make armour completely for paintballing and we never even thought about the fact that bondo doesn't work. :S
Recasting means to make copies of an existing cast. It gets unauthorised when the person who originally made the item doesn't want you to do that. It's like pirating software, just with physical objects.
What method? Generic answer: Not at all.
Ok, I was just wondering if I were to use smooth cast whether it would crack if I were too shoot it with a paintball gun? Or would eva foam or molding work better?
Only 16 hours ago, Ruze has made it clear once again that discussions in this direction aren't too welcome here: http://www.405th.com/showthread.php/32055-Airsoft-proofing?p=526894#post526894
Does Smoothcast require a respirator to work with?
Also, the only store around my area that sells Smooth Cast is way too far; the closest store is TAP Plastics and they sell something called Tap QuikCast. Does anyone know how this compares to SmoothCast, notably the 300/320 series?
Hi Shock\Trooper-2148 here. I'm still and currently in the research phase of my build plan. I'm planning to build two versions of the armor. One set of armor fully made out of pep and strengthening, and the other fully molded and then cast out. I was just wondering. If I wanted to mold and then cast a certain piece myself, did I have to get permission from the source?
By the way, I'm planning on Hugh's ODST Build.
i will be making helmets soon an need the AVERAGE quantities of smoothcast 320 to make a strong but not to heavy mold (hard enough to take the weight of a person standing on it).
