Instructions:
Casting: Pour resin in each part on both molds. For the lid- pour slowly in the opening (circled). Wait for the resin to settle & even out, reaching the top on both sides. Follow your resin's curing instructions before unmolding.
Unmolding:
Lid: Use a popsicle stick in the opening to carefully peel the resin piece from the silicone. Then, roll the mold down a bit so you can grab the piece and rotate it out of the mold.
Base: Fold the mold down around the piece. At the bottom, gently pull the inside silicone from the piece.
The other pieces will demold easily.
Hinge assembly: Place 2 hinge pieces with rod through both as seen below. Make two of these sets. Hold the chest lid so the slots match with the chest base. On the base- glue one hinge from both sets on each slot . Be careful not to glue the hinges together! Wait for this to set. Then, glue the second hinge from each set onto the lid slots.
Sides for lid: Glue the side piece in place. Try to leave as little gap between the base and lid as possible when the chest is closed.
Lock: Add the flat piece to the middle, bottom ridge of the lid. Align the u-shape on the middle, top of the base so that they close together.
