Cast #9, almost doubled the pigment

[Drstrangefart]

I let my oldest one pick a couple of colors out, and I probably came really close to using WAAAY too much pigment, just to see what would happen. Still set up well and turned really well. Getting the hang of the changes I made in my finishing, too.

Looks great. You keep it up and Jonathon will be going to the Georgia meetings to get your seconds.

That'd be like Chuck Norris asking me for Kung Fu lessons.

Make molds around existing blanks out of aluminum foil, cast one blank at a time, and you'll likely need 8 or 9 drops of catalyst per half blank. Use tiny cups like they give you at the dentist's office to mix in, and use popsicle sticks to scoop out pigment and stir.

Now I'm curious, will you post a pic of your next aluminum foil mold?

 

[Drstrangefart]

Should be able to.

 

[sumterdad]
