troopermaster Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 I prefer styrene/hips over abs just because I find it does form better ABS forms equally as well as HIPS or Styrene but it is not as easy form using a vacuum cleaner like most hobbyists use to form plastics.

TK4205 Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 ABS forms equally as well as HIPS or Styrene but it is not as easy form using a vacuum cleaner like most hobbyists use to form plastics. Shop vac. Just sounds so more masculine than "vacuum cleaner". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitcheg1[501st] Posted November 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 WTH!!!!! I was spray painting my second bucket and after some minor issues with Rustoleum (along with all of the feedback on the forums), decided to switch to Krylon. I used Krylon Maxx primer and gloss white paint. First issue I noticed, the gloss white actually appeared flat. Then I was attempting to fill some spots I had missed with glazing putty and while spreading it on, this happened! I had let the white cure for well over 24 hours. What did I do wrong? Is this a reaction between the paint and the glazing putty, or did I not wait long enough? I'm so frustrated with this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-Sonic[TK] Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Very cool work, lots of talent there. Curious to how much silicon it took to cover the helmet and make a mold?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitcheg1[501st] Posted December 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 I used a little over a half gallon of Rebound 25 for my mold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkrestonva[TK] Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 I would love to see someone else's finished bucket, especially paired with armor! I absolutely plan on doing so, but it won't be until early next year once things slow down a bit and I can finally get to work on it.
