Hive13 contains a variety of exciting things to create prototypes from.  Learn to mold and cast these prototypes and more using hobby-grade resins and silicone.   The class is $40 and includes a take-home pint of slow-cure casting resin.  Due to time constraints, molding will only be demonstrate (it takes 4-6 hours for the mold to cure), but we will cast real resin things that you can take home from pre-existing molds (what things is to be determined).
