It's a mother

After reading about Al Stevens' safety casting of Chuck Norwood, I learned I could make a mothermold using plaster bandages. To me, that technique seems safer than using liquid plastic, mostly because of fumes. That's the method I've used for these hand molds. It was time consuming, but kinda fun. Now I'm waiting for them to dry and harden completely.

The frustrating part of the process is that I won't get a glimpse of my handiwork until I've already invested hours of work. While I've learned a lot, I won't be happy if I have to start over again.
