Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrg

This was supposed to be my PITH blanks. I ran in the house just for a minute. Blue & White over set and red was still runny. These were supposed to be 2 Red White BLue blanks (I need 2 to carry off my plan) I jammed the blue & white in a mold as best a could, then dumped most of the red into the other mold, but it isnt full.

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRG.

No, I've just been debating buying the castin craft tomarrow or waiting for the silmar 41 from uscomposites. Any idea how fast they ship?

Have you considered (we don't know but have avoided finding out) what will happen if the Silmar41 is shipped to you and sits on an UPS dock for a day at 90+ degrees?

Will they deliver a liquid or a solid???

I'm only 1 state above uscomposites and it has taken 3-5 days to reach me. if it's for something that can wait a few days I'd say wait for the silmar 41 since it's much nicer to turn. That does suck about the resin setting up too fast. I have a nice spot in my workroom with a pile of that type of mishap. It happens to all of us. I just messed up an order of clemson tiger blanks with the last of my resin yesterday.

I've had resin shipped to me twice in the past few months and they take about a week. I think it's worth the wait rather than going to Michael's.

Order placed for the silmar. Hopefuly it comes by Friday so I can cast this weekend.
