Hi.

Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in life and at the allotment.

So I needed to sort out a curing unit for resin prints. A lot of people use nail varnish units but I decided to go for a slightly different approach when I saw this bin on sale in Wilkinsons store for £2.50. I mean what a bargain for what most people regarded as a bathroom bin was in fact hiding a secret it was in fact a shiny tube with a lid on.

I took the bin and took out all the peddle mechanism and cut the rim part off the plastic bin insert and stuck that back in. It makes a better light seal than just removing it completely. I then got hold of some UV leds from Amazon and wrapped then round the inside. Add in a turntable and one cheap and cheerful curing unit.
