Hello,
I have a metal cabinet with a 1/2 inch lip on three sides of the top. I am looking to place a layer of pennies on top and embed them in resin. First what type of resin is best to use? Secondly what can I use on the fourth side of the cabinet toto keep the resin in place while it hardens? Can that edge then be sanded/polished to be rounded and clear? This my first time using resin so I am a beginner.
Thanking you in advance for your help.

Hi Robert,

As for choosing a resin, it depends on a couple of things. How deep did you want to pour the layer with the pennies?

There are several things you can use as a dam to keep the resin from rolling out. This article will give you some ideas: https://resinobsession.com/resin-resin-resin/surfaces-resin-wont-stick-to/
