First casts! Showing my inexperience, but a great learning opportunity. The concrete looks awesome, it's definitely the right material. But I a) mixed the concrete too wet, b) didn't vibrate out the air bubbles enough, c) didn't let it cure long enough before demolding, and d) was way too aggressive with the demolding. I could probably also stand to reinforce it even more than the fibres in the concrete do. These are the things you think about after, when in the moment you're more focused on engaging and monitoring your five-year-old who is eager to help!

Molds turned out great! Did a quick concrete test pour earlier. Wasn't quite set up when I checked this evening, so I'll give it overnight before I poke at it again.

Lying in the grass on a summer’s day about fifty years ago I would have been surrounded by loads of buzzing #bees & other insects. And I do remember those days and I see the difference now.

We only have around 3 in ten of those #insects left nowadays – and decreasing. Bad news for #birds too.

Take it from me, we live in impoverished times in terms of the living #environment.

Don’t let the lifeless padded brick and #concrete be your comfort against that awful reality.

Girl with a handful of botanical posters of clover, devils bit scabious, and narrow leaved plantain yelling at her brother who is lying in the grass among daisies and buttercups admiring the seed heads of rib-wort plantain (scabiosa lanceolata). All on a sunny day with loads of bees and other insects buzzing about.

This is what they look like with the silicone poured. I'm really hoping it cures okay! Would love for this to just work out.

Been a while since I updated on this project! I printed a couple of small-scale tests of both leaves, indulged in a quick lighting test (since I hadn't seen the one on the right in real life yet), and then poured a couple of silicone molds. With a little luck, they'll cure okay and I can do my first test pour of concrete tomorrow.

Ya‘ learn something new every day… Today’s lesson was that there’s mud mixers and eggbeaters. If you use a mud mixer for #concrete it gets beat pretty quickly. I’m pouring a pad for a minisplit heatpump.

Also my fingertips get abraded and dried from doing masonry work. Then my Apple iDevice won’t perform fingerprint authentication.
