Dehydrating Light

After flashing the piece 20 times, and having to come back and switch on the curing unit every 10 minutes, I decided to invest in a little curing station. I purchased a biltong dehydrator because that is essentially what flashing does, it removes all the moisture from the resin.

 

I left a freshly printed pair of earrings in the dehydrator for 24hours and didn't see the result I was hoping for. The UV light actually sped up the process and if I kept using the 40w bulb that came with the dehydrator id have to wait for over 2 weeks for it to cure properly. The addition of UV lights were needed in my dehydrator.
