Happy Holidays!

The holiday season is finally upon us, and I have LOTS of new projects to share, so be on the look out.  Today, I am posting a project that I completed about a week ago.  It is another mold-making project, but it involved some pretty interesting casting materials.  I took molds of a couple different shaped pipes, and cast them in a mixture of paraffin wax, sawdust, sand, rocks, charcoal, and human hair.  The purpose of this project was an experiment in seeing how much of the sawdust-sand-hair mixture the cast pieces would pick up, and also what would happen if I modified the molds by carving into them.  Even though I took this kind of a weird way, it was fun experimenting with unusual materials.
