/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Made more flasks, almost. The new ones don't have guides/pins or anything. Tomorrow I'm going to cast some, obviously. Made a Canadian ashtray for some fag I know who fucking loves maples leaves, turned out kind of shit but it'll get the job done. The grips panels turned out excellent, including the little undercut on the left hand grip. Doing whole patterns as plates is just so fucking nice, so much more convenient than dealing with loose patterns. Insert pattern, pound the drag, pound the cope, done, love it. Tomorrow, one pattern to cast, then back to melting more cans. I've thousands to get through.
