Euro and Perfume Dabber Gift Set

[KDM]

I'm really really pleased with these. (You might be able to tell this from the number of photos.) These are a Euro pen and a perfume dabber in a home made polyester resin cast.







The PR was made by pouring some strips of pink PR onto a silicone baking sheet and letting them cure. This gave me some long thing strips, which I twisted and cast into some PR colooured with pink mica powders.

Here's a YouTube video of the blanks before drilling for the tubes.

Nice pen and perfume dabber. Them would be nice for breast awareness since this is breast awareness month.

England Flag in PR on European

Oh, yeah. It wouldn't have been right to make a pen for my sister and not one for my brother in law. So, here's his with St. George Cross...



I've started buffing rather than using MM. I sand with 600 then 1000, then buff. This white PR was very difficult to buff. It's like little tiny particles of heavens knows what get stuck (really hard) to the plastice diring buffing.

Anyone got any clues what this might be?

For the first half, the top one's (obvuously) straight out of the mould. The bottom one's roughed round. From about 16s onwards, tehy swap locations. The bottom one has been polished and shifted to the top. The top one has been roughed round and shifted to the bottom. It is believed that this continuity error was due to a (surprisingly) small quantity of beer.
