casting catastrophe(s)

ok so a few weeks ago in DAI310 we had a short 1 day assignment. We had to design a snap fit peice out of modeling clay, cast it in mold maker, then cast it in resin. So form this little experement i feel like i have the power to create anything!

Well after casting in mold maker Charlie discovered the mix was bad. We scraped the project. so i realy have never casted anything and have no idea how, but i still feel like i have the power to cast anything!

So i went to the store and bought about 100 bucks worth of casting suply and decided to give her a whirl.

Im working on a little side project for some gifts. Im basicly creating a mold for a mrs buttersworth bottle i have and im going to cast abunch of them in crazy colors. Im also wireing them up and lighting them up. Im still working on the electrical work (learing as i go as well). My friends birthday is in 6 days so thats when im shooting for.

Im also casting a small KEEN logo i made out of clay for my 310 project, but that one will probably turn out pretty well.

Heres some pics i took, because i'm excited!
