Re: 1/12 Kremer K3 Porsche 935
Pictures tell more than my basic english.
Last part of making the mold.
Inner core was cast with resin.
Thats how it looks when its pulled out of the mold.
Take a closer look into the silicone mold.
Think its looking really good.I am happy with it.
Thats how the inner core look like.Ugly and rough.But at the end i will invest some time for smoothing it.
Cut the rear end of and sanding the cut.
Here is my guidance( dont know how to say "schwalbenschwanz-führung" in english) for both parts.
Ready for casting now.
Thats it.Have to wait until its hard and than i start with smoothing the inner core.

schwalbenschwanz-führung = dovetail joint, and in dutch: zwaluwstaartverbinding
Clever solution.

Re: 1/12 Kremer K3 Porsche 935
Great job Christian, i guess the 2 parted core is the only solution which works, with your connecting system it will be easy to cast and remove these parts, keep posting how it works!
Take a stand!

Re: 1/12 Kremer K3 Porsche 935
First body was cast today.
The inner core was sanded a bit.Not too much,just right for casting.
First step is to lay the smaller part into to mold and than the bigger one.I secured it with the screws.
Just made the first body.I needed 600g Resin for it and hope all smaller parts are filled with resin without big air bubble.
Need to cure until tomorrow now.Its saver when its getting hard overnight to avoid bending.

Re: 1/12 Kremer K3 Porsche 935
something to show for you
worked very well and i am happy with the result.No big air bubbles.Looking very good.
Only i have to be careful when i remove the inner core.The part from the roof to the rear wing is broken.But i will use a different way the next time.Should work better with more care.
