My First Pour
« on: 04/14/14 07:16 UTC »
So I made my first and second pour last night and what a hoot.  It was awesome.  I can't or don't know how to upload pics to this site so maybe I can get ctom to add my pics that I am emailing him to show can do that.  He was a great help and hopefully he can give me more pointers as well.
Thanks everyone including JerryV and ctom for all the starting pointers.  I want to learn more and do more.  Thank you

Just stepping up and starting out is the best confidence builder a person can make. Reading about everything ahead of time is a huge help and the more thorough you are in reading the better. prepared you are. Anyway Nordy, you took all the right steps first and before you started. You're on your way dude.

Thanks,
I love!!!  It was super fun setting it up, cooking the plastic and injecting it.  So I can't wait to do it again.  I need to figure out colors now and what to use.

Very nice photo and it certainly looks like you've got the posting pictures thing down too.  Nice work.

DON'T show those to Steve or you'll have to make more for yourself.

Thanks everyone.  Really excited to have given this a try.  Well I love it and I am hooked :D
Anyways learned somethings and making the plastics I am ready to try core shooting and different color tails.  Not really sure on how to do the core shoot but have to try it so tips on that anyone???  Pictures will be coming.
