We sprung a leak right over an outlet (Resin Pumpkin Aftershow)
🕑 Added 2023-11-03 17:04:09 +0000 UTCHey y'all! We need to go sleep for a week but Chunk 1 and Chunk 2 are done and the video is live! In this Aftershow we cover:
- Why we chose to attempt the cube again
- What method we almost went with
- Our agony and indecision on whether to remake Chunk and try for Chunk 2
- What our friends and family thought about Chunk 1
- All the testing we did on the mold that didn’t make it into the video
- Aluminum cube
- Glass + silicone cube
- Thermal tests with ice bags, aluminum, hdpe, and air
- Surrounded by orbeez
- Ditch it for a cooler
- The column having flakes
- 2nd trip to the pumpkin patch
- Panic about Chunk 2 floating and his corners pulling away (this ended up being cut from video)
- Lessons learned from each pumpkin

Can you do more pumpkin vids

would the resin curing have worked better if chunk 1 had been frozen solid before you added resin? Like, carve the pumpkin, freeze it with the lead in there already, mix the resin, get the pumpkin out of the freezer and then adding the resin? Like, not freeze-drying, just freezing, so the organic stuff that happens in everything is slowed before you add heat via resin?
