I'd start with buying some liquid acrylic resin of some kind. If you just want to try it out, you can get some from Michael's craft store, but it's pricey comparing to buying it in lrger quantities online. Like Rollerbob said, read the tutorials in the library section as well.

Welcome!!! Stick around and read and you may limit that to $70!!!!

Here is a great place to start. Other more specialized articles that focus on specific areas of casting are also in the library waiting to be discovered. Start here: http://content.penturners.org/articles/2008/greenwaldpolyresin.pdf
