Yes, fixing things is so satifying.

Nice job. Your leather work is amazing. I think the plywood would look better with some Danish oil or shellac on it to bring out the plys.

wow. great idea and beautifully executed. a clever way to add splines to your miters.

It's beautiful. Great pictures.

I have always wondered what they were for, too. I got them at a surplus store years ago. So sorry, I don't know. I looked online as well and came up with nothing other than expensive carbon fiber tubes.

Yes. thanks. They are great and healthy!

I'm glad you made them.

That's great. Yours works better than mine!

Amazing. I thought there was no way it would be functional at that size. The video is great.

It won't be easy. I think you'll have to carve or sculpt it. Maybe in Sculpey. Take a rubbing on tracing paper. Then flip the paper over and lay it on some Sculpey and poke through the paper to map out where the details are. Then try to recreate them as best you can. It won't be perfect, but you might be able to make it less obvious. Or a skilled wood carver could use the same technique on a piece of wood. A lot of work depending on how big the piece is.

For a 3-d part you'll get a better result using a flexible mold. Check out https://www.smooth-on.com/.

I used Plastilina, but I think water based clay would work, too. Acrylic paints work well. Cheers.

It's soft until about 24 hours, then it gets hard and brittle.
