I have a small (about 1/2 a photo canister) of sand from Iwo Jima.
Owning to the fact that one: I don't have a lot and two: its hallowed sand I don't want to just pour it into a blank and have a bunch hit the deck as I turn it.
SO... I am thinking, painted or powder coated tube (I have an HF kit) clear glue and I roll the sand onto the tube.
Then I envisioned pouring half the blank around the tube, letting it dry and then adding a small amount of sand around the tube and adding more resin on top of it to give it some dimension.
I have PTownSubbie cigar molds...also slimline ones.
Ideas?
