Turquoise resin ring, bague turquoise en résine

This is the building of layers of different colours of resin that will be the base material in which the ring will be carved. I use polyester clear resin that I colour with appropriate pigments. Each layer is cast into a mould made of oil clay.

Voici comment je fabrique les différentes couches de résine colorée qui seront la base dans laquelle la bague sera taillée. J’utilise de la résine polyester d’inclusion transparente que je colore avec des pigments appropriés. Chaque couche est coulée dans un moule en pâte à modeler.

  1. That looks great Chris, what do you use to stick the layers together? More resin?

  2. Yes, each layer, once hardened and grinded is covered by another layer, then another one, etc...
