one of the magazines did an article on this awhile back if I recall for small parts like wheels they built a small box out of legos, filled the box half way with the wheel suspended by a wire and a couple of locating pegs , let that cure then pour the second half but i think you remove the locating pegs so the second half fills the holes left behind thus insuring positive location every time ,after everthing is cured you carve a small hole to pour your resin . this is from memory and is not something I have tried but makes sense to me . hopefully this helps also the resin manufacturers usually have pretty good instructions on the use of their products. also look for the article from 2006 when Gregg and Jairus visited jimmy flintsone it has some good info .
