Another jig idea that works with resin is to hang the item with a wire. If you can suspend the piece without anything in contact with the resin it doesn't run as much. Anything touching breaks the "suspension" of the dome and once it starts running it is like a dam break. If you want to dome the resin in a piece of tagboard you set it up on stir sticks or coins and make sure nothing touches that outside edge...I can demo this if it would make more sense!

That is what Andy calls it we formed it with a dapping die and a block of wood that was drilled out.. Sent from my iPhone

Andy is amazing in the detail and love he gives his pieces -- it inspired me to try to make the back beautiful. He also believes in point of privilege where you have something special on the piece that people can only see if you invite them to...I just finished my chicken piece that he gave us to work on ...it is hysterical and I'll post as soon as I can!

TypePad HTML Email The eye is captured between the two pieces of metal which are wire riveted together. We made a hole smaller than the eye and then dapped it out into wood so keep it soft. Some of the students made their hole more eye shaped. The only rule was we couldn’t do tears unless we have been to prison—I guess that is a prison tat thing….I did solder some parts to the pin back on…. I have a cool cold join pin back that works just as well as the soldered one, but isn’t as pretty…. Linda LarsenObjectsandElements.com206.910.8243
