I'm going to be building up layers of UV resin as a sludge pit. I may be adding some bones as well.

How do you contain the UV resin to get it shaped before hitting it with a light?
My attempts have not been ideal.
As I do resin casting (dice, etc), I have silicone mats. I have cut a strip to temporarily affix around the base as a dam.
Mind you, these will be done as many thin layers.
That sounds more successful than trying to closely adhere plasticard or acrylic sheets to make a container.
I'm happy with it.
Great shape on the resin yeah. It looks gross.
Thanks!
Here is the silicone dam in action. The UV resin will hold it in place until I remove it.
