Time lapse foam mushrooms
Переглядів 56 тис.3 роки тому
Time lapse of a weeks work making 3 giant mushrooms. Foam tools used were from Hotwire Foam Factory. Mushrooms were hard coated with Styroplast from Hotwire Foam Factory. To make them stand up I put metal rebar into the ground and then slid the mushrooms over the top.

    I stumbled on this video a couple years ago and never forgot it. When I moved all these boxes kept arriving for things we were ordering with big pieces of styrofoam and I had my hoarder moment where I thought I better save all this. Now I’m finally settled and ready to start making projects. Thank you for this amazing craft! I can’t wait to start making unique decor for the holidays. Crossing my fingers that I’m as crafty in real life as I am in my head. Thanks again!

    Can confirm polygem is top of the line epoxy. Made my snakes perch system with it 7+ years ago after being frustrated nothing on the market for purchase due to green tree python community settling for plain white pvc pipes but thats another story! This is an awesome way to make an enclosure background thanks for the video.
