Ive also found heating up the resin and hardener (seperately) lowers the viscosity and helps bubbles escape, as well as torching the top of the resin with a lighter to pop the bubbles!
A tip that worked quite well for mne: Use silicone mixing cups and a cheap mug heater to heat the resin while mixing. Not too long, because it will shorten the working time. But it will keep the viscosity low enough to release most of the bubbles@@honeymilk4398
Hey! Something I reccomend doing is pouring resin on top of the mold too! It makes it so there aren’t any air pockets in the numbers which is the real problem, and if there are any they can usually be sanded off!
Anyone looking for advice on actual nearly bubble free dice without a pot (yes, it is possible) keep looking, this video ain't it. The title is click-bait and the dice pulled are riddled with bubbles that can be seen easily despite the horrible camera focus and attempts to only show the "clean" sides.
if you don't have a pressure pot, I'm using a resin curing machine, much cheaper and safer and smaller than a pressure pot. I'll let you know how it goes!

I'm going to try that! I may do a new pour tomorrow on my Live! 😀
@MakerBuildIt awesome! I used a water bath to heat mine so it heated slowly and uniformly

"How to cast bubble-free dice", proceeds to pull Bubble-ridden dice. At least you got my view. click. baited.

Do you think any brand of alcohol inks can result the same?
Maybe. I have not tested any others yet. 😀
aka Shaun here from tiktok did you 3 d print your panit holder in background on desk ? I like that
Hey Shaun! No. I didn't. I got it at Michael's.

Cool! Definitely let me know how it goes. 🎲 😀
