Unlimited Run Han In Carbonite (HIC) Volvo panel set

[Bigturc]

First half of the mold is done! Should be all done tomorrow night if everything goes as planned!

Keep em coming guys! I'll take people in order of post when I begin casting! So if you're in, might as well post as soon as possible!

Bonsoir Monsieur.
I'm interested in a set as well.

 

[dsp5500]

Definitely keen to see how they turn out.

 

[Bigturc]

Yeah, me too .. waiting for the silicone to cure .. will keep you guys updated soon enough!

I'm wondering if ONYX slow is slow enough for this application! I will see that too later

 

[WINGNIT]

Definitely.

 

[Bigturc]

Small update people,
First mold is now done!!!

I'll begin casting in the next days and see how it goes from there. If everything's fine, I`ll probably do a second mold to be able to get you your panels in the shortest delays possible. As soon as I have 8 panels, I'll contact the first on the list and change this thread to an UNLIMITED sales thread...

Thanks for following!

How do we get on the list ? Id like a set, thanks

 

[Bigturc]

That post just got you on it!

 

[Bigturc]

Demolded my first cast this morning guys! I'm super happy with the result!

You can remove the flashing with your nails! A few small air bubbles on the top lips that will go against the HIC box .. so no worries there .. it's the price to pay for the 2 parts mold! I'll still be really picky of what I send to you guys so no worries there.

I still need to cast a complete set to evaluate final cost!

Could you post what a "slush cast" of this would look like?

 

[Bigturc]

Basically ...

A 2 parts mould will create a cast piece which has details on the inside and the outside, it's an exact repro. But I need a longer curing time resin, which is more in terms of hours.

No more slush cast. Heavier to ship, more resin and longer to cast!

Anyway .. I need another mold to be more efficient!

Hope that helps!

 

[niennumb1]

Well crap it's the outside i'll be looking at and if that's the case where the exterior is intact i'd be fine with a set of those. Sign me up for a slush cast! Would be interested to know the cost difference.

 

[dr_slurpee]

I'd be curious to hear the cost of the slush cast!

 

[JCMXTRM]

I would be happy with a simple mold would it be possible to offer both the simple and 2 part ??

 

[MANDINGALOW]

I'm in for a set !!!

 

[dsp5500]

They turned out great. Put me down also for a set.

Our community went from a HIC-panel starvation diet...
to a 'we want both a 2-part casting AND a lower cost slush casting'
-nice!

Loll .. Well you might just have a choice!

I'd likely be up for a set of 7 to finish out my set. My hero panel is a 2-part mold, but is the slush cast easy enough cut the windows out of to put the aluminum behind?

Thanks!
