  • In this video I show you all the steps you need to cast PU (polyurethane) rubber in almost any shape you want. For my tank track skateboard I needed rubber blocks for the tracks. I couldn’t find something that would fit so I decided to make my own..

      All these people are right. Adding a note in the title saying the actual language this is in is the expectation. Usually any non English video has a title in its own language or if not at least mention the language in brackets. If too lazy to to do so, I would explain people to complain about it, for good reasons.

    How good does it bind to itself? Could I pour multiple layers in the form to make a hollow object? I want to make a safe breecher tool for airsoft but think when I pour the head as one solid piece it would get quit heavy. So my idea was to pour bit by bit in the mold until I have a thick enough shell and fill it then with self expanding foam.

      /(h)winj/
      verb
      1. to complain persistently and in a peevish or irritating way.
      "stop whingeing and get on with it!"
      [excerpt]
      "We English users vent, we lament, we fuss and grouse and kvetch. We also-especially those of us across the pond-have a tendency to whinge. Contrary to appearances, whinge is etymologically distinct from whine. The latter traces to an Old English verb, hwīnan, meaning "to hum or whir like a speeding object (such as an arrow) through the air." When hwīnan became whine in Middle English, it meant "to wail distressfully"; whine didn't acquire its "complain" sense until the 16th century. Whinge, on the other hand, comes from a different Old English verb, hwinsian, meaning "to wail or moan discontentedly." Whinge retains that original sense today, though nowadays it puts less emphasis on the sound of the complaining and more on the discontentment behind all the whinging and moaning".
