 Subject:  Casting 1/35 Main gun ammoList thread.  
  
 Date:  Dec 11, 2002
 From:  Mark Rethoret 
Maybe someone here can help me, I need to cast some 76mm rounds I've turned for a T-34/76 project that I've been working on.
I have experience with RTV and casting resins but I haven't been able to come up with a satisfactory way of casting these tiny things while limiting distortion (as would happen with a 'squash' type mold).
Have any of you come up with a good "in home" method for this sort of thing?
