making an casting the collectingbins

The mould cured well. It's the mould for the collectingbins where the fishermen empty the net in. There are two bins and the skipper can empty them in a central bin from where there is a conveyor-belt to move the fish to the workdeck.





The mould in the making






And its separated. Alle went well and I have a good mould


Here the mould is poured with resin. The left over I poured in another mould so I dont spill any resin


**** I did spill some resin and you can see its curing.


The resin is curred. This takes a few minutes but I wait a hour before I demould the casting.


Demoulding


Drill some holes to let the air in the mould




And here I have another good resin cast. The walls of the bins are 0.3mm thick. Almost no trapped airbubbles so I am very happy.
