Quoted from Freeplay40:As far as colored ramps are concerned, that will change a little going forward since it takes a lot to set of for the coloring process
Can you elaborate a bit on how it's done? I don't mean to ask you to reveal any of your secret sauce or anything.. just curious how the process is done. I would have thought the plastic was actually died while liquid form. To hear you die it after molding no less sounds pretty interesting and I'm just curious how its done!
Thx!
Quoted from Freeplay40:The dye bath must be heated in order for the plastic to take the color. The real trick is very tight temperature control. If the bath is too hot, the plastic will deform. If too cold the dye won't penetrate well.
So its a dunk tank? pretty cool. That's kind of what I was asking.. if it was some sort of vaporization, melt on, soak, etc. Just fascinated by the production details. Thx for sharing 
Quoted from Freeplay40:I am embarrassed to say that everything I have made so far has been heated in a household oven. Clearly this limits the size of the ramps you can do. The new machine I am build will have a sliding heater panel with around 40 ceramic elements.
Your output looks stunning .. regardless of the tools in use! This kind of news is really encouraging for a part of the parts hobby that has historically been problematic. Your work is motivational
