Introduction To Resin Casting (Alumilite Clear Slow)

Part 1: Monday, June 15, 2026, 9:30 AM - 12:30 PM

Part 2: Tuesday, June 16, 2026, 9:30 AM - 12:30 PM

This two day class will teach you how to cast pen or project blanks with Alumilite Clear Slow resin. Spend two days with Robert as he guides you through the resin casting process and answers any questions you have pertaining to the casting process. Day one will start with an explanation and demo of the resin casting process. Robert will walk you through the tools and equipment needed as well as talk about the nuances of resin casting, giving tips and tricks along the way. Finish day one by casting your very own project blanks that you will take home on the second day. On day two, Robert will walk you through how to prepare, turn, and finish a blank made from the same Alumilite Clear Slow resin (not the blank cast on day one). While the resin will be set and able to be handled, Alumilite Clear Slow takes a week to fully cure. The blank you turn will dress a Wall Street II pen, vegetable peeler, or coffee scoop (turner's choice). Students will leave the class with a project blank or two, and a completed turned project.
