What type of plastic and glue are you using for the mold?

Hi Friend,

This comment is not to offend you!

But instructables is a place to share what you make! The content should be original. You just can't take screen-shots from a popular youtube video and make a description to post it here. It would be nice if you try it out yourself and upload the pictures of your version of what you saw in that video.

But these pictures are just screen-shots from the Youtube video

Atleast you could have mentioned in the introduction that this is a guide to that youtube video. Give credits to the original author mate. Makers spend a lot of time making these things. Don't get offended. Share what you make. You'll get all the support from the readers!

We made similar paper weights as an art project when I was in primary school... 25 years later it's still standing on my desk! This is a fantastic way of showing off something as unique as that four leaf clover. Nicely done!
