[broitblat]

This is a new material I've tried working with. Any guesses on what it is?

More information to follow.

I am thinking paint chips in clear cast?
perhaps leftover from the garage floor sprinkle?

It looks like what I have been looking at, at HD. epoxy chips that you spread on your garage floor after sealing it. If it is I was thinking a green resin and brown chips for camo.

Perhaps robin egg shells you can see blue with white flecks on one side and white on the other at first I thought aluminum foil but with a closer look it's too thick for foil and the specks don't fit. I still say some type of blue egg shell I don't think it's paint chips because the color would be the same through the chip. It is clearly blue on the surface of a white material and the tube is painted black. Does look nice though.

Not a clue, but it certainly is an attractive material.

i was also thinking blue and white paint chips on a black painted tube cast in clear resin

 

[SKEETERPROV]

polymer clay or the shavings from poly casted

I agree with Bruce , Dyed Egg Shells . Out of the 4 blanks I made only one came out that I liked . The first person I showed it to bought it on the spot .

Barry, is it shavings from drilling out an acrylic blank cast in resin?

 

[Mac]

sunflower seeds

 

[Len Shreck]

I will guess either acrylic Shavings from either a drill/cut or crayon shavings in acrylic. Just a guess from a total newbie. When you going to let us know?... Len

 

[Ligget]

Egg shells was what I was thinking too, whatever it is made from it is lovely!

I'm guessing Alkemi "Lapis 25" - looks awesome

 

[broitblat]

Well... that didn't take long.

It's labeled "Quikrete Color Flakes (Blue Mix)". It is the flakes/chips that you sprinkle on an epoxy garage floor coating. I'm not sure exactly what they're made of, but you buy them in a little jar that has different shades of chips. It's cast in clear resin. The tubes are painted white but I don't think that was needed.

Points to Kirk and Max.
