Assignment

Create a useful object out of Renshape foam. Cast it in silicone, and fill the silicone with clear tinted resin. Pressurize. Wet sand to glass finish.

Notes

I really enjoyed the process of working with the Renshape foam. I made my cast box too big and so I needed to add more silicone. I also didn't pressurize it with enough time, so I ended up having issues with my cast and had to redo it. Even then it wasn't perfect because I didn't mix it properly, so I had to cast it again. I got a great finish though! Overall it was really fun and I can still use it as a phone holder today.
