So I started playing with the casting supplies I won last weekend at the Midwest Penturner's Gathering (Thanks again @JohnU).
I had to start with the sweetgum pods. They are so cool looking all by themselves. They look like wicked fossils cast in Alumilite.
There were numerous small voids (from bubbles in the resin). I must have been a bit slow to get them into the pressure pot before the resin thickened.
I chose a Sirocco kit for the pen. It turned out pretty well. No pun intended. I made 6 blanks in a block mold, and used half of one for the Sirocco pen.
I still have 5 of these blanks - If anyone would like to trade a couple of these blanks for a couple of yours, let me know.
Thanks!
