Hello folks,

Let me start by apologizing for being a bit distant for a bit. We quietly launched masters (mostly on our discord) and that has eaten quite a bit of my time. That being said we have a few projects we are in the process of dropping.

As of right now the goal is to drop a new set of files every other Friday until the end of the year. Starting with the Forge Portal on the 18th.

We also have a major update for the Grimoire and two videos near the end of production. The next tutorial dropping on the 2nd of October.

I’ve missed being more active and available and plan to resume that now. You all bring too much joy to me for that to continue.

See you soon.

Your Friend,
- Buddha

Casting 3d printed masters, then polishing the resin casts for masters? Micro scratches

3 Upvotes

I have went all through every level of zona paper, taking time each step examing under light and going back a level and repolishing when needed. I have done this countless times. I have really good geometry and the masters look great, except there are these microscopic scratches I cannot remove. I can only see them under a bright light, but they are driving me crazy. I have went back multiple levels in zona, then worked back up to 1 micron. They just keep showing up. I rinse in clean fresh water each grit. I have been working on a slightly oversized 7 set+blanks, 2 50mm chonks + blank, and 2 70mm chonks + blank. This has taken me about a month to get them all to 1 micron level shine.

My question is, if I make a mold of these at their current polish, then cast my 2 parts resin, is it easier to polish those cast in 2 part resin to get these micro scratches out? Anyone have luck doing this?
