Beautiful and yes, so satisfying to see a creation done yourself! Here are some tips to consider regarding final quality, strenght and costs. 1. Consider a brief further cure even after initial dry stage. Mist the bowl with water and let dry again. This adds strenght. 2. Consider making your own sealant. Use waste styrofoam and dissolve in Acetone until you get a nice consistency that is not too runny. DO IT IN A GLASS BOTTLE OR JAR with a lid. Leave the jar sealed for a few days. The sealant becomes crystal clear. Paint this on your bowl. Adds a beautiful shine, waterproofs well, and adds extra strenght. Also much cheaper. 3. Try normal playdough as your mould sealant. Quick (no drying needed), cheap and can be re-used. Have fun, enjoy!

Looks amazing really thought you'd have used rapid set waterproof cement I've just come along your video to find a recipe myself. Wondering if you van use a paint pigment to grt a deeper colour

Very nice. I will use less tape on the drain to get a perfect hole and spend a bit more time on finishing.

What do you suggest to use for the outside of the mold? I couldn’t quite pick up what you were referencing that material as, and I’m having a hard time getting creative.

Hi, no we used a normal sand cement mix, our builder advised us on the mix and it worked well

Why not just use the bowl for the sink? Why bother with cement?

Not enough background noise with airplanes and wind so I could almost hear a few words you spoke...maybe if you whisper I'd hear a a little less of whatever you're saying. Nice sink, though. Would be nicer if I could hear the words you're saying.
