Changing the mold or resin on a recipe (and scaling amounts)

Swap a recipe's mold or resin — optionally scaling the amounts to fit — and review the changes before you keep them.

You can point an existing recipe at a different mold or resin. It's one of the more involved things you can do to a recipe, so Ellie gives you a chance to review before anything sticks.


Changing the mold

When you change the mold, you choose how to handle the amounts:

  • Switch only — keep the amounts as they are.
  • Scale & switch ×N — resize the amounts to fit the new mold's volume.

Heads up: The scale option needs a volume on both molds to do the math. If either mold doesn't have a volume set, the scale button is disabled — set the volumes first.


Changing the resin

When you switch to a different type of resin, Ellie reviews the steps for you, since a different resin can mean different handling. She shows a step-review panel with options to Accept, Save as new, Edit, or Discard the changes.

Heads up: Save as new creates a second recipe rather than changing the original — useful on purpose, surprising if you didn't expect it. If you meant to update the recipe you had, choose Accept instead.
