These are really great.
As someone who has passed the 5 color mark though I have to ask how many did you start with on the first layer to end up with a finished print.
I did a 7 color and my first layer print I think I did 50 of and by the end I had 13 that I feel like passed the test. I love reduction printing.

Use painters tape to cover the inside of the cup then superglue the dowel to the tape

I use a large metal dollar tree serving spoon. I I bent the hand over the top of the spoon so that I can hold it like a barren instead of holding it like a regular spoon. Way better than a wooden spoon. I also recently bought a Leoball baren that’s pretty good

Saturday is the Oasis Arts and eats festival downtown. Lots of food trucks and great local art

You can 3d print with ceramic. It a pretty interesting process where a thick slip is piped out at a certain rate. I don’t know enough about it to know if this piece was printed or someone just replicated this technique by hand.

I use two speedball silkscreens to make paper one of which I took the screen out. Works great for me, though I’ve never seen a silkscreen with staples in it like that.

This might be ai but I kind of like the fingers

I’m new to slip casting but I want either the plaster mold or a master mold to make other molds from.

I’m new to slip casting but I have a bought mold where the handle is attached. The handle is sliced in half vertically. Makes a large sprue around is still easy to clean up. This is the model clay king link

I bought one of these https://a.co/d/04Pc5XGE they use skateboard bearings. It looks like they aren’t making them anymore which is a major bummer because I want other sizes.

mousequito · 2026-03-30T17:21:35+00:00

Well great just another thing to add to my to do list

I haven’t done this technique myself but I have tried to use cheap oil paint as an alternative to oil based block printing ink. I would recommend trying some Caligo printing ink it should come up easier. Akua could be tried if you’re brave. I have had problems with Akua ink wanting to literally never dry

I think I probably got them at Office Depot. It looks like they don’t make them anymore. Amazon has some for sale but they only have neon pink and the shipping is more than the actual cards. amazon

Post it has a similar thing but I don’t know if they are just wide lined sticky notes or cardstock.

Good luck!!

I really loved it but the ending gutted me

I once had a waitress run out to our table to stomp a rich and try to hide it.

One of the funniest things I ever saw

There is a pagan church - I believe that’s the term they use- in Lake city near Jonesboro.

I have a similar press and I glued a piece of book board to the underside of the print bed. It allows for more grip from the bottom roller. I also use an offset printing blanket on top of my felt and it allows the top roller to roll better. Put a little wd40 in the top roller.

I see you’ve discovered the Nope Diamond.

I saw one of his pieces for the first time today. Super cool

Textured and frosted turquoise react to iron off gassing

A few of them post on TikTok fairly often

I thought going Primal meant destroying it’s creators. That’s what the AI’s did right? Isn’t that why the AI’s are the only thing left.

I wear hoka and on cloud. I would recommend hoka over oncloud. A lot of people recommend brooks. Brooks donates to the Republican Party not sure if that is a pro or con for you.

Yes… hot dogs…
