Resin
Current work is tube in sierra pens - so I find the pics, print on waterproof label -cut out with my Scan n Cut and apply to the brass tube then put into the tube in mold
Then I am using art resin product (1:1) for its clarity and pour over and let set
then when they come out I turn on my lathe - (got mine at Canadian tire up here under 250.00 10 years ago )
what a mess I make
and then I turn them , and sand and sand to about 12000 mesh and then polish with a plastic polish till they shine
so far
First one took a while I think I redid at least 5 times sanding and polishing till I figured out how to get a shiny finish
and then assembled into a Sierra style pen (that matched my tube in mold for size )
Then I used one of my honeycomb molds that I 3d printed and filled with resin and was happy with that
Finally I did this one that I took for work as I love the colors - and so far the best one I have done
SCRAPBOOKING
Was away at a retreat on the may 3rd weekend and loved it - loved being pampered - unfortuantely my knee was still hurting from the bakers cyst and my hip nerve was killing me (if I had only gone and got some aleve would have been fine )
Had a ball and did some scrapbooking
didnt get the last one finished to where I wanted so until next scrapbook crop
