Wendy- these are my spent rounds. First, I filled them with epoxy to hopefully cut down on the bubbles. Pour a small amount of epoxy in the silicone skull silicone mold, let it sit for just a short time, drop in the ammo, pour in the rest of the epoxy. Then I spend the next 10 or 15 minutes using heat to pop the surface bubbles. Cures in 24 hours. The fifth one is curing now, so tomorrow I will add a picture of the completed lineup. In the meantime, this piece is finished for a thirsty friend! I’m not sure what type of wood this is, it was a leftover piece in my garage that I stumbled across, possibly Mesquite. He said his favorite color is blue, so he got the blue epoxy bottom.
And as usual, sanded to 3000 grit [ Edited by hang10tiki on 2023-02-11 18:04:04 ] |

If anyone was unfortunate enough to end up with a skull full of bullets, it's my bet they are then incapable of doing much at all..... Do these have a specific function or are they purely decorative items? [ Edited by TIKIGIKI on 2023-02-12 17:47:13 ] |

You are so welcome. I pictured you carving something to attach to it. Maybe a war club cracking it in half? Are you leaving it like this? |

That's so cute. I can imagine smoke coming out of the chimney. I had an aunt who opened the first all-female gas station in California. She was in Reader Digest. They all wore white with black bow ties. I just mention her because once she thought it would be fun to sit on the patio (out in the country) and hit bullets with a hammer to shoot them off. Only one spun around and shot her in the leg. She showed me the big dent and scar when I was a kid. She also was a gold miner/prospector. Such a fun aunt. I like the coaster. |

Hi Wendy :-) Well Crud I just realized something a little late, I should not have hollowed out the bottom half of the log, I should’ve done the design work first, while chiseling today, started cracking. Oh well Glue n clamp n cross fingers |
