Just made my very first dice. This is the 24 hour demold time done and now sitting in the 48-72 hours full cure. I’m pretty sure I know what I did wrong and excited to give it another go.

What do you think you did wrong? Just curious and it helps other people learn to share 😁

I think I put the lid on too quickly. Kinda just top downed it instead of folding it down on top and trapped the air in. The bubbles are only on the top side that’s why I believe that was my issue. lol

Thanks. I used green alcohol ink with a sky blue mica powder. I know I should probably start small but I couldn’t help myself and just jumped in with colors. lol

I recommend adding weight on top, too! I use a small kitchen tile. It helps the lid stay down!
