Question:

I would like to make small models with resin? Haven't done it before and would like step by step advice?

I would like to make animals, babies etc approx 3 inchs long out of resin. I used to make models from NEW CLAY but it breaks when dry. I have never used resin and would like advice on the best to use to make small models, dyes, tools etc. Thanks

Answer:

No there is no fire watch needed for a job like that. Proper protection on the area around the welding is good enough. Such as fire blanket and fire extinguisher within reach. If there is a small fire in a hotel, it won't sink. That is the difference. I work as a civilian for the Navy welding in a shipyard and the are waaaayyyy more paranoid than anywhere else. For good reason though.
Ya know this may sound dumb to most fisherman out there but i live by it and i have been fishing, well a very long time. First rule is on the business end of things, what bait are you using ? For example if you are using a deep diving or heavy action crank bate you dont want too lite of an action etc. I fish for everything from pan fish to game fish and from gun and run to anchor down and sit awhile. I will catch 10 lb walleye on an ultra light and tiger muskies on a medium action with a light tip. My point is i pay more attention to my price range and the action and quality of the rod ( not meaning top name brands ) but I grab the tip in one hand and hold the butt with the other and bend it by my ear listening for crackling etc. warning if you are doing this and it sounds like it might snap STOP or move it away from your head for that hurts like a son of a gun when they snap and your face is the closest thing around !! rofl My point is this..do you like to horse the fish in or play it for awhile? Outfit your fishing needs with the style you like and just pick a decent rod with the correct action and does not sound like it is going to snap when bent !! Hope this helps ~ Good Fishing ))))) Jami (((((
