      Hi, we’re having trouble with getting small string lights to sit still in the resin as it cures. We place the lights into the moulds and they sit perfectly as we pour the resin, yet after 10 minutes the wires start to bend and float up out above the surface. Wondering if anyone has encountered this? Any tips?

      Hi Ian,

      You might want to pour in thin layers, putting the string of lights in the layer you want them to rest in.

      While not exactly what you want to do, this article explains more: https://www.resinobsession.com/resin-tutorials/how-to-make-things-float-in-resin/
