This resin takes forever to demould but little success so far. The engine exhaust is again useless. The sensor arrays are fine. The Turkey feather is cracked and soft and still needs to cure. The resin is taking too long for the turkey feathers so I will get other resin

So I try with Alumilite. I have some left but will need more. It comes out of the mould nicely

Sensor array waiting to be demoulded.

So today I have 3 sets of good sensor arrays and 3 good turkey feathers. I am going to need to make several more turkey feather moulds as it will take forever to get the number I need for only one ship.

Pouring resin and waiting for it to cure reminds me of how much I really do not like the routine of casting
