Has anyone ever worked with resin in moulds? I want to acieve the effect of coffee beans in resin but haven't found anything online that explains the process, probably looking in the wrong place. :roll: I'm assuming that there's a thin layer of resin followed by beans set in resin and possible a middle filler for strength and weight.

I know that people use resin or fibreglass in resin to build models, I just wondered if anyone has an artistic streak and could help. :scratch:

A bit too much texture for my taste - try haggis!
