I have been looking into this for awhile and was mainly scared off by the
price of resin.

For a 'small' package of Alumalite brand it would cost be almost $30.00! I am
not sure exactly how much that would work out to for 25mm stuff. But I was
intending on casting a few custom vech. (I made out of plastic 'trash') and a
bunker.

Anybody have a good source for CHEAP resin supplies in the US?

Thanks, Scott

I picked mine up at "Bills Art City, but also noticed our local Ben Franklins
craft store has it. I very much doubt this is the quality of Alumalite, but
I'm not really sure that is necessary. I'd look around the art supply stores,
has to be a few of those in Berkeley. Oh, and a quart should last me ages
unless I start working on the terrain for doing the battle of Helms Deep for
Fantasy Rules!
