I really like the look. I have hundreds of pine cones on my property consisting of blue spruce, cedar, arizona and deodar cedar trees. I thought about incorporating some pine needles with the cones. Thanks for the great video!

@elihayes7679 6 жыл бұрын

Those look great, I love pine cone pens. I would personally like to see you make pen blanks out of a variety of materials in resin you find. Like little sticks, banksia pods, maybe even try antler. You make great videos and thank you for the informative entertainment.

Was looking to make some knife scales with resin that has various pieces of objects from a persons past . For example , dog tags, leather from coat , bullet casing etc. Would be cool to see you casting multiple objects for knife scales and see how they turn out

@CaseyMartin707 3 жыл бұрын

I’ve seen that done many times! If I had a custom order I would do it, but since I don’t really make real knives myself, I’d probably only make the scales

Casey, I know this is an older video but I’m catching up. My question is did you stabilize the pine cones before casting?

@CaseyMartin707 5 жыл бұрын

On these specific ones I did not. They were super hard and very dense, and so I figured they wouldn’t need it if I just dried them out completely. It worked well. I had no problem turning them either.

@garydgdk 5 жыл бұрын

Casey Martin Thanks man. I’m inspired by your videos and I have been stabilizing and casting over here in canada for about a year. Don’t sell them just have a passion for the art. Your videos are so down to earth and straight forward. I will continue to be a fan and a follower. And I must try the pine cones in resin. Amazing brother. :)

+Peter Goumans It would be better to than not to, however I didn’t with these. Main reason being that they were small and super dense, and I thought they’d hold up ok. If I come across a large amount of these again then I definitely will.
