    Could we put in the liquid before gluing top layer then we don’t have to have the hole?

    Weld-On 3 or 4 is magic for acrylic and is probably cheaper than the Testor’s since it’s made for industrial use. Been using it for years 😊 Oh and it sets in 30 seconds.

    • @KimandGarrettmakeit
      @KimandGarrettmakeit  Před rokem +1

    Just curious if there was a specific reason you opted for two layers of 3mm acrylic instead of just one layer of 6mm? There's more color options with 3mm obviously but black and clear come in 6mm plus its less materials use. And instead of creating that hole to put liquid in and have to plug up, did you try creating a solid shape (without the hole) and putting the backing piece on your center pieces, laying everything flat and then just filling it flat on the table and putting the top piece on?

    Can you use this technique with wood too? As in shaker ornaments? I'm wondering if there's a way to do this without the oil/glycerin soaking the wood.
