Ooh it's possible that a clear coat could work but I'm not sure how it'll hold up over time. I think it's worth a try if you happen to have it at home! Doesn't hurt to do a little test piece and see :3

looks good 👍

Can’t you just get ink jet shrink plastic? Is there a benefit to drawing it on instead of just printing it?

These are adorable! Also I good tip with the jump rings, it looked like you pulled them apart at the sides, try not to do that because it actually weakens them a and it’s hard to get them back to a circle. Take one pair of pliers on one side and the second pair on the other, hold one side still and with the other hand slightly push forward to open the ring, then put your piece in and the side that you pushed open, pull closed. It keeps the strength and shape of the ring better.

Hi also when opening the jump rings, it’s better to twist sideways instead of pulling it apart because it creates weak spots in the ring and it doesn’t close as neatly.

I've heard that the resin can easily slide off of shrink plastic after curing since apparently the type of plastic is resistant resin! To avoid this, people have suggested to coat the piece with mod podge before applying the resin, so the resin adheres to the mod podge layer... has there been any issues with your charms?

@mandateee

6 ай бұрын

Yes I've definitely heard that before! Thankfully, I haven't seen any issues with the charms/keychains I've made. At the moment, I don't see the resin lifting from the shrink plastic material and even if I scratch at it, it feels like it's one whole piece rather than two layers.

A tip for opening jump rings - twist them open and closed instead of pulling them open and pressing them closed. They will be stronger, hold better, and not deform. This is because twisting metal causes the atoms inside to align together, and the metal becomes become stronger as a result. Pulling and pushing cause atoms to scatter, and the metal becomes weaker and breaks at the bending point. Plus, twisting is easier than pulling and pushing.

Yay that's awesome! It's been awhile since I made mine, but the biggest dimension was probably around 2.5 inches (6.35 cm) and it shrunk down to around 1.25 inches (3.175 cm). Hope that helps! The shrinking may vary if it is a different brand as well. Your first batch will likely become testers so just have fun with it and play around with different sizes :)

Is the UV lamp optional or does it have to be included?

With UV resin, it can harden when it's put outside in the sun, so the UV lamp is definitely optional! The UV lamp is a bit faster and good if you live somewhere that is more overcast.

The instructions do not have any warnings about it being toxic when used in a conventional oven, so I am hoping that it is safe. To be cautious, I would avoid baking food on a tray that was used to shrink plastic in case it leaves any residue/traces.
