I've been making molds & casting parts for years & have been avoiding vacuum degassing the entire time. But now I'm getting into things that require degassing. I'm making my own action figures. I want to start my own toy or garage kit company/business. I want my items to be very professional looking. But here's my problem, the more I learn about vacuum degassing chambers the more confused I get. Everything I read creates another question.
So how can I learn exactly what I need really fast? I'd like to go out & buy what I need & get moving on this but I'm just as confused as I was 20 or 30 years ago. I've learned a ton about mold making & casting And I'm making fast perfect molds & castings now. But haven't learned crap about vacuum degassing even though I've been reading about it like crazy.
I'm making tiny parts for 10"-12" action figures. Some of the parts have tiny pegs the size of a paper clip. When I pour the resin it won't go into tiny holes like that. I have to push the resin into these tiny holes before pouring the whole piece. I also want to start working with clear resin which needs degassing.
I have absolutely no idea what I need. How much vacuum do I need & what size chamber? Most of my molds are tiny. Can you point me in the right direction? Unfortunately I can't avoid this anymore.
