What do you guys do when you need say 5 plasma pistols, or a few extra power fists.

I have seen a few tutorials on making them myself out of resin, looks interesting, has anyone tried this or any different methods?

if so, can you point me to some tutorials?

Thank you.

eBay or bits stores are your friend, if you don't want to try sculpting your own or buying the required sets.

I would remind posters that, while tutorials showing how to cast your own creations is fine, we do not allow tutorials detailing the copying of GW's (or any other company's) parts, as that runs into all sorts of potential copyright issues. Not trying to start a copyright discussion here, just heading off anything that's going to require removal later...

Bitzbarn, bitkingdom, bitzbox, warstore, Hoard O Bits on ebay.

Recasting is expensive to start up and has a steep learning curve on getting 1:1 results. Add to that the illegal part and it really comes down to how badly you want X and how hard or expensive X is to get.

Ebay is my major source of bit's and its cheap.

Hoard O bits on ebay is amazing. I highly recommend them.
