I am working on what I hope is going to be a cool custom. However the cast head I have is too small for the body. I have heard some Tankers can enlarge casts. It just needs to be maybe 25% bigger.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have wondered about this myself. I would love to have several of the visor head that came with POC Ultimate Snake Eyes enlarged by about 15%.

The shrinking stuff does have a brother that enlarges stuff but he's just as expensive and requires molding and casting skills.

yeah it can be done but it takes skill and it is expensive and takes several molds to be made.

I think It's kerosene that can be used to swell a mold for slight enlargment of castings.
Might be worth a google session to find out...that would surely be quicker and cheaper than going through the full process of using Hydro span and multiple castings. |
