Me with my first egg.
I've taken on a casting job for a fellow artist and roped in a friend and foundry man to help. Its taking some serious thought and time to execute but in the end will be a good experience. Fortunately Danie's clued up on bronze and body casts. It's going to look amazing.

My wife and I also started a small business of our own, "Photo booth fairy" which can be a bit demanding, especially when functional modifications are need. We've just managed to get it to print out photostrips.

Finally Freddie's coming out of a two piece mould but still requires serious labour. Hmmm... Another alternative would be to cast him into a refractory drawn from a silicon positive but Eish...that wouldn't really be in keeping with how we do things.
Guess I'll have to accept that it's going to have to be a labour of love.
The rose range is coming on slowly and I'm hoping to make the toilet roll holder, towel ring and short rail tomorrow. I'll upload images of wuma goodies early next week.
"Life's what happens when you've got other plans"
Friends of ours will testify to that. They've been trying for a baby and just received the news that they'll be having identical twin boys.
All in all, things are good and sales are also picking up :) with a few people wanting basins and bathroom accessories.
As Elaine always says
"Keep smiling"
This one seeded itself.
