Is it a bad idea to have a workshop on a porch? I have a closet that can store things if it rains, and I don't have much space.

First time using resin. How long will this take to cure? (Desperate for advice (lol)) 🙏

Edit: (RESOLVED)

Currently clutching some last-minute work for an assignment, like the title suggests, I massively appreciate any advice!

Run-down:

  • Time: I'll have between 10-12 hours to let this stuff cure.
  • Measurements: Pretty flat "plate" with surface area of about 45x45cm (18x18 inches). I'm hoping to have it about 1cm thick (0.4 inches)
  • Climate: About 24°C (75°F) and relatively dry air
  • Safety: A standard 3M half-face respirator for painting; Regular kitchen gloves; Regular safety glasses (not air-tight)
  • Resin: (Images of the packet in this post)

My questions:

  1. Is this doable? Am I done for??
  2. What maximum thickness could I probably/safely get away with for a 10h timeframe for curing?
  3. I'll be casting this as the base of a shelf holding at most 7kg. Is my resin strong enough?

Thanks!! I'll let you know how it goes. 🤞

What can I do with Turkey feathers?

My wife’s grandfather was a naturalist. He recently died and when we visited his widow at their ranch, I collected about 60 wild turkey feathers from their property.

He loved the turkeys that nested in the trees outside their home; as did my wife and they often discussed the “flock”.

I had a plan to make something of the feathers, as I’m a hobby carpenter and leather-worker, however anything I can come up to make with the feathers with ends up seeming a little hokey and definitely outside of my wife’s generally stylish preferences.

Anyone have any more modern/stylish ideas for how to utilize the feathers in something that would make her think of her grandfather without being embarrassed to display?

DIY Delft Tiles for Kitchen Backsplash with Enamel Paint - Seal or No? Experience with Durability?

I’m renovating my kitchen and loved the look of delft tiles / hand painted tiles in general. Knowing I needed to DIY, after some research I settled on using enamel paint to do the design. Now I’m all done painting and it’s about time to install but I’m nervous about the durability even though the paint has had time to “cure”. I’m curious if anyone has done this and can speak to the durability with or without a top coat. (For reference: these will be for backsplash in a two adult household. I don’t expect them to get worn / dirty much except for the area behind the stove, and from everything I’ve read and tested it seems like cleaning with water or soap and water and a cloth won’t cause damage)

How to turn paw print into stamp?

Hi 👋

Today I picked up my furbaby's ashes and paw print and was wondering if anyone knows how to fill in the paw print and turn it into a stamp? I'd like to be able to stamp his paw print into a photo if that's possible.

TIA.
