Funshowcase Fancy Fan Resin Casting Mold Stick with Thread and Nail Set

I am a beginner when it comes to resin crafting, but I saw these and thought it would be cool to make fans for my friends. But, the end result didn't come out as expected. Not the fault of the product, more my inexperience. Although I do wish the molds were slightly deeper to help fix this issue. If you are experienced with resin and know how to keep the resin from thin molds from bending or losing structure, then these are a good choice. Otherwise, I suggest practicing some more first.

Finished the smallest set of blades to create this fan. Using glow powder and alcohol ink I made the palm sized fan. The molds work well and any issues I had with them was trying to get the resin even. The blades were easy to sew using the video but using that method means the fan won't fold closed and stays open. Also wish the nail pin and cap was in multiple lengths. It took 12 blades to cover the pin which felt huge if I wanted to turn it into any kind of pendant. I purchased 2 sets of the multi pack but still means multiple castings and creating the same look twice or more. I attached pictures since the only ones I could find were the ones here. Hope it helps anyone who is interested and looking for information to make their choice easier...

Great

The fans are a bit flimsy, and not so thick, the mold are okay.

Very shallow mold so it makes the final product flimsy. Paid a lot of money to get it her and now I want to send it back. :-(

Beware, even as an experienced reain artist, these are not only difficult to poor, but very difficult to put together.They only come in molds of 3 pieces at a time. Takes several days or several kits to make a fan like in the pic. Also, the hardware they give are hard to close and keep closed- the ends drop off. It is also so think, I won’t make a fan like the picture.These molds are so thin, it’s very easy to over fill and thus won’t come out right.Forget about using inks or colors if you want to be consistent. They are cut with two blades up and the center one down. If you get even the slightest drips, the entire tray needs to be redone and that’s 3 blades lost.The pin to hold the, together is so wide, even 13 blades don’t lay flat.They give you stretchy string to tie blades to each other, looks super sloppy when closed.The tassels and beads are not included.I wouldn’t suggest to even another experienced resin artist.

Tried this a couple times but you can only make 3 blades at a time and have to pour VERY thin or they stick together. Deeper molds would have helped. There is no instructions on how the parts are supposed to fit together once cured either.

It's alright
