Some more Red Mallee Root Burl with mica coloured Epoxy Cast Requests
First off some pepper grinder blanks in bright pink, red and purple (they look brighter than they are due to photo in sun) 70x70x240. I also used the left over resin to cast up some pen blanks with brown mallee root burl and threw them in. They took 3.6 litres of resin and all up they now weigh 4.6kgs

Next some box blanks 80x80x80 in purple, and purple/blue mix.

While casting up the box blocks I thought I would do another bucket of burl cast for a bowl, but this time I cut it in half for 2 ~200diax60thick blanks. Unfortunately I pressured up the pot, then used the air hose to blow something down, but then forgot to reconnect the pots . The initial pressure removed the bubbles but the air leaked out, so the temp in the pot on the hot day meant it went off too fast for the volume used, and my cast cracked. Easy fix for me but looks like I will definitely turning these ones.
