MarkJ Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I will probably never get into casting resin bodies but I was curious where they seperate the mold when making a car body. Is it longitudinally and split from the left side and right side or is it the upper half split from the bottom half. Is there a website that shows doing a model car body?I found some websites showing how to do small items like gears and small figures. I just can't seem to figure how they get the finished model car resin body out of the mold? Just wondering? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Zimmerman Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Usually the mold is two piece;'inside' and 'outside'. The mold is flexible enought to remove the body(that's the 25 cent answer) ........'Z' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Jody Jody, Would it be possible for me to get a copy of that. I do mostly small parts like my engines and I doubt I'll ever get into anything as large as a body but it might have some useful info for me. If you can please send it to me at: kitchen_table_resins@yahoo.com Thanks, Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
