I just moved into new barracks at my new duty station. I have a Gentex smoke detector that is wired into the wall. It chirps every few seconds and its driving me insane. I really want to tear it off the wall and literally kill it. HOWEVER i dont want to pay for damages or get the fire department over here. I already climbed on top of some furniture to reach it and tried to look for a battery access or whatever to perhapsshut it up, but all i could find is how its attached to the wall. I tried to move the dial from Test1 to Normal but only set it off, Test2 has it chirping faster and more annoyingly. All the other guys i ask say theirs dont even have a green ON light in theirs. how do i shut this darn thing up??? (without damaging it or drawing attention)
You are fine. Acetone won't do anything to you just by working with it, unless it went into your eyes accidently.
Yeah, all I have seen a the craft stores are your basic shapes in a single sheet. I think if you just use your imagination, and use the mold release you could use almost anything with a shape you fancy, as long as it is sturdy enough to hold the resin until it hardens, and as I said,USE THE MOLD RELEASE! Just look at things with a new eye, that is what I always do when I am trying to find a new idea. You could make a mold of something you like using a few different ways and then use it as a mold.
