Creation Of Bones Polymer Cane

I've started creating a cane to eventually be transformed into some earrings for the band Bones, If you have never heard of them you should! Have a listen to the video above, Addictive music with an amazing voice to go with the insanely good base lines! 

So here is my chaotic glory!, I tried a new method to try and get less warping when reducing canes, I often seem to have issues with this as any cane creator dose! So here I have used an extruder and what I like to call the Pixel Method. This is where as you can see in the picture, you count how many blocks you need of each square, you also cut some for like the bit on the B for example, I did it in rows going from left to right and used the paster machine on grade 1 to do the gaps between the lettering.



Well these are the results, I am pretty presently surprised and happy with these so far! I had a few new toys to play with, an extruder which I seem to have already broke, So looks like I will be buying a new one off ebay today... £6 down Boh! I recommend to anyone who is in this department to pay a little extra for the slightly better ones.


Now to create them into earrings. Watch this space!
