Just thought I would share a casting I did this morning. B9 green resin, cast with 38 grams of old nasty customers 10 and 14kt gold.
Sweet results casting was perfect, Optima is giving me the best results I have had casting resin.

Amazing! Does it bubble like the dreaded Plasticast devil investment? I am thinking about getting it!

No it does not.

That corner looks like porosity. I also see a little flashing above it.
