B1- Plaster Casting

I really enjoyed this project it gave me a break from stressing about other school assignments and just allowed me to have fun and create something while doing it. I wasn’t able to go to the beach so I bought some play sand at the local hardware store and used that to make my mold and then created my cast. The cast it self came out decent in my opinion because it is very difficult to get a good mold out of sand. I have never done any thing like this before but have always wanted to, I really enjoyed this project and want to do something like this again.

If I were to connect this with an aspect of my life I would it connect it with my major. Currently I am in pre-mechanical Engineering and in the future if I were to design a part I would use a mold to make a cast of a prototype I want to develop.
