Where would Air bubbles get trapped in this mold?

why are you making a weapon?

why can't you do something useful with your life?

What direction are you pouring it from?

>>1138578
From the middle of the side blade. I cut a glue stick and stuck it there. Hard to tell from that picture

>>1138582
Do you have lots of vent holes at all the end points? I count at least 7 spots.

>>1138577
Do you mean a prop?

>>1138583
Doing that at the moment. Which direction would you pour from? This thing is an awkward shape

>>1138588
I'd be tempted to pour it blade up from the center. Probably can get away with zero vents because of the curve.

Would the resin reach this certain spike point if it's poured the way you mentioned? That's the one possible issue I see

Sorry wrong pic

Well there's one way to find out. If it doesn't you'd just have to carve a small riser above the area for the next pour. It's the trade off of not having 7+ risers to grind/sand down.

Also since you said resin I should point out I only know about metal casting. Your way maybe better. I'll defer this one.

Downwards, in accordance with gravity

Every corner which isn't at the bottom and also that little nub thing

I'd sprue to each corner and have a vent on either side (the E side and the Blade side) - and pour through the part which connects to the head I guess.

Maybe slope it down at a 45 or 135 degree angle like pic. Usually helps - like if you're pouring a pint you angle the glass.

That looks like a fuck ton of wasted space
just pressurize the shit when you're pouring it in
