ScupltCrete

Found this stuff on Amazon after going to Home Depot and realizing just how toxic actual concrete mixture can be. It's been sitting in my closet 'cause I want to try making a roller (thinking 4in PVC might be a good starting point).

So I figured I'd ask if anyone else has heard of/used it. If you have, what're your thoughts on it?

TIA!

I guess so! Any advice on making a roller? I saw someone use a bait roller for fishing and immediately thought it could be adapted to make glandes (which is prob'ly exactly what the model CA made was for, I just don't have a printer). I thought PVC would be a good start, but didn't realize how expensive 3"-4" pipes were. I'm trying to find something else that size that might be workable. Also need to check out a plumbing store to see if they have scrap pipes.

Here in europe large diameter pipe is cheap if you buy the canalisation or drainage pipe/downpipe instead of the thick PVC stuff. In that post I also have a formula for kneadable concrete. As it do happens, I'm going to test it tomorrow.

He has done a video of clay glandes and turning them out very quickly with a board and hawk ... 2 bits of wood, one with a handle. Good luck.
