Time to be honest with me Mastodon:
Do you clean the inside of your ears with cotton swabs ?

and it worked! Well, mostly ...

The surface finish is crap, and the filler sprue is blocked. This meant that the wax had to form a void somewhere as it cooled/contracted. The small hole near the centre of the cast is a void, and after some fiddly mass/density calculations, I reckon that the void might be almost 10% of the total volume. Impossible to tell without cutting it open, though

#tetrapod #casting #wax

a small blue four-footed structure cast roughly in wax, still surrounded by two out of four of its mould pieces. Excess wax can be seen blocking the filling port at right. There's a small holed in the object near the centre where an internal void has formed as the wax cooled and contracted. This might be as much as 10% of the total model volume

Ill-advised experiment: casting a tetrapod from melted surplus crayons in a 3d-printed mould

#tetrapod #3Dprinting #casting #wax

a white plastic part mould (oddly shaped: like a pyramid, but with the corners snipped off). It is held together by black silicone hair bands plus some backup green tape. The top of the mould has deep blue/indigo wax filling the top, and a trickle of it has run down the front of the mould.

Next to the mould is a glass yogourt pot that was used to melt the wax. What was clear glass on it has a thin layer of dark blue wax

Pro tip: It's perfectly okay to use your 3D printers as a heating table for your wax :sayoriLikeTrue:

#SciArtSeptember Day 10: Algae

(This was going to be cast in brass, until some guy dropped it on the ground and utterly destroyed it. An incomplete process photo is the only thing left)

I arranged found Araucaria leaves so they evoked the motion of algae in water.

#sculpture #process #leaves #araucaria #metalCasting #abstract #nature #wax #SciArt #ContemporaryArt

Several twisted and brown dry araucaria leaves (they look like spiky twigs) are attached to a tilted brown wax cube, which rests on top of a white plasticine cube of the same size (this was temporary). All of it is on a wooden table with some dirty metal tools, drops and pieces of wax.
The leaves extend from a diagonal plane of the cube, starting close together and getting more separated at the end, describing sinuous shapes.

The Irish Chandler 🕯️ for #fotovorschlag "Produktfoto" / "Product photo"

One of my favourite candle companies! They are handmade with high quality soy wax and fragrance oils in Lahinch, Clare. A lot of their fragrances are inspired by Ireland and they smell incredible and are very nice to have when you're a little homesick. 🥹
(I am not affiliated with them in any way! This photo is from when I was trying to practice "lighting" at like 1am on a random Tuesday because I got the zoomies 🐕. I learned nothing, did not improve and made a mess but I did tire myself out enough to go to bed 😂)✨

This photo is a close-up of a candle labeled "The Irish Chandler, The Sneachta Candle, No. 17 IVY + Balsam" in a black glass jar. The label also features at the bottom - "120ml burn time 20 hours soy wax candle handmade in Ireland ".The candle has a blue and orange gradient due to different coloured lights which are to the sides of the candle. The background is dark, highlighting the candle's colours and design.
