Market research time for knot aficionados! If 1 is the smallest and 5 is the largest, which of these looks most enjoyable? For reference my fist is 4" across the knuckles. Small knot (1) is ~5.75" circumference, large (5) is ~7.5" circumference.

Coat 2. Smooth-On's XTC-3D is not, it turns out, a 100% cure for the foibles of 3D printing but it's really dang close. And honestly I think it's gonna be close enough at 2 coats to proceed with some silicone prototyping.

Time to celebrate! We're officially a legal entity!

Mica pigments to experiment with were one of the last things I ordered. They arrived a day early. Prototyping process begins tomorrow morning, then!

did you know you can just go out and buy silicone of the consistency used to fill breast implants? and then, presumably, use it to cast incredibly hilariously jiggly floppy...things...

Hmm. Think I'm going to have to cave in and construct a mold form out of cardboard.

Just reading up on epoxy coatings this morning.
