I am fully aware of the risks of working with resin products and aim to give you great tutorials in a safe way. I film in a very ventilated area and keep risks to myself low. I would always recommend you to wear full PPE based on the data sheets for the chemicals you are using 😊😊😊.
Stay safe whilst creating beautiful art 🙏

your tutorials are timeless. Cannot stop reviewing past videos. Love you
They are gorgeous pendants. Thank you also for taking your time to explain step by step 😊
Thank you for being so detailed in your teaching. It helps a lot. Results were fun and beautiful of course.cant wait to try it. Be well!
Did you say that you top your pieces with UV resin when they shrink a little in the mold??? I just jumped off my couch yelling "game changer!!!!" Why have I never thought of that??? That should be included in those lists for beginners that people put out. You are my hero today!
😊😊 so glad it helped
I always overfill them, just so, and they work perfectly.
🤯🤯‼️ Mostly all videos say just sand down the edges that are created by the shrinkedge. But 🤯 this would save alot of time .. plus you don't have to worry about messing up your peice when (if) you have to dome them to bring back the shiny glass look .. or sanding them so they're even only to find its no longer the width you desire or after doming you mess up the other side from over pouring an you attempt to fix it by doming that side... 🤣😂🤦♀️ .. im still new to this.. and then it's thicker then desired...
🤯 so much easier and smarter to do it this way‼️
Scoring the back really helps keep them stuck, I had so many pop out before I did that.
I also wanted to say, and I'm sure others will agree, that you are the only one that has explained the basics in colors and their effects in resin. (Mica powder, alcohol inks, opaque inks, pigment pastes etc.) Also explaining the different whites that are used along with enhancements like silicone oil. I for one appreciate your time and explaining it so well. All your chapters worked out to a tee. Thank you!
🎉Great tutorial 👍. Love 💝 the finished pieces. 😊
Love these spinning pendants, Daniel, and thank you for the tutorial! 😊
"...too many coffees"??? No such thing! (LOL!) Thanks for the instruction, inspiration, and the laughs. I enjoy your videos very much, and I like how down to earth you are. Happy Creating!!!!
Thank you so much 😊😊
Nifty! 😊❤
Loved all the details and how easy you make it look.
What a great video. Thanks for sharing all of your talent! I learned a lot on this one. Superb!!❤
Thank you so much for all of these wonderful ideas. You are fantastic!!!
Always very welcome 🙏
Thank you again for your instructions and great ideas.
You are so welcome! :)
astounding content Daniel Cooper. I shattered that thumbs up on your video. Keep on up the high quality work.
Thank you so much 😊
Thanks for tutorial I've made my own silicone mould for cabochons
Yay 😊😊
I just discovered your channel and it's awesome!
Please don't be hard on yourself when you feel something hasn't worked out. I'm only about 4 videos in and everything you've made is fabulous!
I've definitely had the same thing happen with the black-tastrophy and believe me, mine did not turn out as beautiful as yours! I just used acrylic paint and did a clear coat- voila!
I think most of my pieces haven't turned out the way i envisioned so I've become pretty good at plan B- ing, Lol.
Nice to 'meet' you (& yes, I subbed)‼️
Thanks so much Nicole 🙏
Wow! You're not only a fantastic artist but also, and most importantly, you've shown me how to do the mould I was looking for, for centuries. I'm a happy girl now...😁. Thank you so much. 💓
Yay, very welcome one Lea 😊
Those pendant pieces are just beautiful and your little circle resin pieces turned out so amazing. Adding this idea to my long list of things to try out.
Thank you 😊😊😊
Nice job. Very pretty♥️♥️♥️
Thanks Maddie 😊
Great video, thanks Daniel x
Thanks Anita 😊
Beautiful!
Thank you 😊
Thanks for the video!
Very welcome 😊😊😊
Maybe someone has already mentioned this but, the silicone spray does prevent the silicone from adhering to each other. So, your instinct to use it was spot on! You could repair the indents from the glass cabochons by pouring a shallow layer of silicone into the tray mold. Plastilina clay is also a great base, you can slightly embed the piece you want to mold into the clay to prevent the silicone from getting under it. It’s best to use a pasta maker to roll out the clay so it’s an even depth. Great tutorial! I always enjoy them!
Awesome, thank you, I wasn't 100% certain 😀
Fantastic thanks have made some too awesome idea
Thanks Susan 😊
Beautiful
Thank you 😊
I love those spinner pendants! The design is really pretty. I love the cabochons that you made-and the mold. That might be something I will try. It would be a lot easier to get a matching pair.
Very nice 👍
Thanks Twiggy 😊😊
real nice Danny, wish i could Donate but in a bit of moving out of our home do to there selling an need to find a home, over here in San Diego California its ridiculously over priced for even a studio. But soon as I find a place and settled in I will gladly help out the channel, you more then deserve our help for all the great things you've shared.
No worries at all 😊 really hope you have managed to settle down or will do very soon 😊
Oh Daniel I had to laugh! I’m exactly the same as you after too many coffees.😂 it keeps us going!👍
I’m being selfish as I don’t do anything other than RUclips. Please. 🙏😉
Really pretty! I can recommend E6000 as well . Great stuff.
Have you a link for the bezels please. Thank you.👍😁
😂😂😂 I try to stick to just 2 in the morning but had one too many this time!
@@daniel..cooper the more the merrier! 👍if you are talking
RUclips.😬☺️
Daniel these are so pretty!! Thank you for posting...like your videos a lot! Wish we were neighbors so we could resin and share ideas! Lol 🤗
Thanks as always Cheryl 😊. Yes, that would be awesome!
❣❣I can be the neighbor on the other side and we can have resin parties!! That would be alot of fun ... hey people have painting parties why can't we have resin parties.. as long as its in the garage with the door open, cuz that'll be alot of fumes going on ❣❣
You need to keep the molds clear if you want to use them with UV resin. No colouring.
Nice!!
Thank you 😊
Gotta get me some digital callipers!
Oh yes! Brilliant gadgets! 😊
So helpful Daniel, thank you. I’ve made a few moulds, but always used a plastic container.
I absolutely love your vids!!! These are gorgeous!! Thank you
Thanks Julia 🥰
Awesome, as always! Thank you for explaining so well.
Thank you 😊 Very welcome
Than you for sharing this information! They turned out beautiful!!
Thanks Kathy 😊😊
Oh wow, maybe I’ll give this a go. Thankyou Daniel for sharing this with us x
Thank you, very welcome 😊
This came out perfect. Thank you for sharing. I think I am going to follow you step by step.
Thanks Kim 😊
I love those 🤩💕
Thanks Jolanda 😊
@@daniel..cooper you’re so welcome… i was waiting for a video from you lol you’re so good at doing this I’m amazed 🤩💕
Thank you, I will be concentrating on more frequent posts soon 😊😊😊
Wow Daniel these are absolutely gorgeous!!! I want to try to make one so bad! But making my own mould and everything makes it seem so daunting.
It's super easy, honest 😊
FYI you can pour a very thin coat of silicone in your coaster mold to remove the cab imprints.
Genius!!! I take it you would just need to cut away at the excess? Thanks Patricia 😊 🫂
@@daniel..cooper There shouldn't be any excess Daniel. Go to Pouring your Heart out's channel, she has a video on how to do it.
@@patriciaharkin1571 love her channel... this is the first video from Daniel I've seen but now I must go binge watch his others, loved that I got more useful info from this 1 video than dozens of others put together ❤ 😁
Pressure pots aren't the best for silicone, but vacuum chambers do well for them. There are some RUclips videos with comparisons. I'm interested in both mold making and resin, so I have both machines. The vacuum chamber will suck out all the air, whereas a pressure pot compresses bubbles to a very tiny size. Others explain better than I can. Beautiful work here! It wouldn't have occurred to me that I could use silicone molds to make molds. The release spray worked a charm!
That was what I meant 😂, I got mixed up lol.
Hi Daniel, these are so awesome. Do you have the link for the tray mold you used to create your own mold. Thank you.
Great idea Daniel! I've sent you a DM regarding the supply of bezels 🙂
Thanks, will go and check now 😊
Awesome video Daniel....beautiful pendants and mold. It really surprised me that the silicone didn't stick to the silicone mold 😯
Thanks Lisa 😊
You are over 25.5 k as of today.big question of the day,can you use 2part mold maker,to coat and make your own stir sticks and such??? I am learning so much from you,tyfs I owe you a coffee ☕ 😌 ❤
Yay! Yes, I don't see why this wouldn't work 😊
This video is amazing. I really enjoy it. Also encourage me to try, can you please let me know where do you get the rectangle mold you use like a base?
Thanks Martha, I think it was part of a set I got on Amazon with different shapes and sizes, I can't remember exactly, sorry 😔
😍😍😍😍
🥰🥰
Why do you not use epoxy for the gluing of the bezel?
I have tried but the glue seems to adhere better in some bezels
Hi Daniel, amazing tutorial, as always! I am wondering where you found those leather bracelets, I've been looking for stuff like that! Or if you don't have a link anymore, do you have some search suggestions for me for the good ol' google? I don't know if I'm using the right ones ( with English not being my first language). Thanks so much!
Hi, I get mine from amazon, search for bracelet blanks 😊
Nice tutorial. I didnt know you could use a silicone mold as your form to make a mold. I thought the silicone would stick to the silicone
I think maybe the spray I used may have helped but need to try without it next time 😊
Super cool! I totally just ruined a druzy mold and the coaster I was making bc the resin got under the mold😭
Oh no! 😔
would a heat mat help to bring up the bubbles, like one can with Resin? - i caved into watching this LOL
I use a heat mat, yes, heat at 1st thins the resin amd can encourage bubbles to surface much faster 😊. I will cover this on a coming tutorial 😊
💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Is mold release just regular silicone spray?
Awesome video. Do you sell this mold ?
Thank you, not yet, I'm still too new 😊
Thank you for sharing this with us Daniel. The glue you are using may not be good for being on skin or breathing. Wear a mask or protect your self and those inside your home. I love the entire process of making the mold
Thank you 😊
Did you put your sinker white in that other bottle, did you add something to it (or why?)
Just my sinker white and a ball bearing to help shake it up 😊😊
Wouldn't putting every other row between n the middle make them less likely to tear when using them?
I luv luv luv how they look in the spinner thing 😍😍💜💜💜
This silicone sets quite hard compared to other moulds I have used, you can space them however you like, this is just how I placed mine and have a lot of trust that this will last without tearing if looked after 😊
@@daniel..cooper in New to all this. I tried to make a mold of a silver frame that I luv. It's for wallet size photos. I thought I was making it too thin 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ so I mixed up the rest n it's so thick now I don't know if I'll b able to use it's ridiculous looking
@@mandicoleman7433 oh no 😢. Mistakes are how.we learn though, we just have to keep trying 🥰
@@daniel..cooper thanks I needed that. I mean I know that but I was thinking I want gonna try anymore
@@mandicoleman7433 don't let that mold win!!
So how long do you let the resin sit before you pour the ink in?
Straight away 😊
Have made the mold and some cabs. Glued them into the cases. Could you tell me how you keep your tube of e6000 clean after use? I went to use mine again and it was all clogged up 😭 had to pierce it with a needle
Yes, I had this issue with the myself, i now only use the one with the normal cap, not the pointed cap.
@@daniel..cooper yes that's the one I've got, but the glue dries inside 😒
Hey Daniel. I just made my first mold from Let's Resin. Why doesn't it have that real shiny finish? How can I get that shiny finish on my finished cabs? Am I spoiled? :(
That's strange, try to polish the glass cabs as much as possible before adding the silicone :)
Brilliant!! Could you tell me what release spray you used please? I bought a mould release spray and it must have had silicone in it, cuz it stuck the whole lot together 🤣😂
Hi, yes it's called Bond it Release spray 😊
@@daniel..cooper ah that's the same release that I have. Don't know what happened there then 🤔
@@traceymorris511 strange indeed! 🤔
i am struggling to find the silicon release spray in SouthAfrica
😥 sorry to hear, have you tried looking for another brand?
Hey there. Do you put any type of UV resistant coating for n the finished cabs?
Hi, not yet but I'm testing at the moment, if it works, can cut uv by 95% 😊
@@daniel..cooper oh fantastic. I’m about to try the krylon crystal clear spray. Im excited to see if you find something that works!
@@threepoursouls5272 krylon can help, some use it and add a top layer of resin but sadly, it doesn't make a huge difference 😔
@@daniel..cooper what are your thoughts on the Total Boat Halcyon Varnish. Is UV resistant and their RUclips page says it can be used on epoxy resin projects. I was going to buy it and try it, but if you’ve used it and it’s crap I’ll save my 20 bucks.
To be honest, I haven't tried it, it sounds interesting though!
Is the resin toxic (even if low odor) as am very sensitive to certain varnishes & especially epoxy! It can hurt your animals & build up in your home for months & had to start using waterproof Duraclear instead.
Hi Paula, yes, if you already know you are very sensitive, it's best to stick with your safer option 😊
@@daniel..cooper Thank you as put me in the hospital with serious lung burns so now stick to the Duraclear & works for me.
Thank you for another informative video.
I have this handle and don't know how to make a mold out of it?
Have you by any chance done something similar?
I just can't get my head around it.
Thanking you 😊8:/a5a4f9bab73c7 CA1234
