table blo,&addition to plaque

[amazingkevin]

I sprayed the table twice and wiped off twice The Jesus name i filled in the reason for the season with playdoh and the leafs and holly berrys were paint on raised wood cut out.the bag of playdoh was $14,00 but i'll get my money back plus selling the placque.Dw's advice to use blo was just the ticket as it brought out the color and grain perfectly,Thank you DW I'll be useing the 6 gallons i have right along now!

lolol Kev, is that your belly showing in the last photo? The sign looks fantastic with the playdoh infill, does it harden over time or what? I didn't think it was any good to use as an infill, simply due to the shrinkage problems and how long it takes to set up.

Kevin it looks Fantastic! :thumbs: But I have to ask the same questions as Ken.

[Falcon]

Looks great! I would be curious about the playdoh also.

Nice Kevin.  Interesting use of Play-doh.  Might have to use that polymer clay and bake it for a bit to harden and do the same thing.  Thanks for sharing this with us.

I did google play-doh hardening.  They say that it will harden if left out as it will air dry but that it would be brittle and would soften again if it got wet.  So I am wondering that if you sun dryed it - being as you are in Florida then top coated it with say shellac or varnish then it should do the trick nicely.

No Len, that's my pet pot belly pig,we both have the same name ,coincidence,lol :rofl: :rofl: The playdoh is supposed to go in the oven which i don't have so I'm winging it on the first one to see whats going to happen.I sealed the back with glue and maybe if i seal the front with clear it won't shrink.Time will tell.I like short cuts!

Bobby i think if i seal both sides of the playdoh it might not shrink???? :oops: :oops: :oops:

LOL, this will be a good test run to see what's going to happen with the playdoh! :o

Kevin that is what I was cutting in "NUTS" you did real good on your cut. What size ( length & width ) is your cutting? Did you enlarge the pattern?

[frankorona]

Beautiful work, Kevin, very good idea.            

[smitty0312]

All my intersecting word plaques are the same 10.75 x 4" 3/4" thick. Thanks for satisfying my curiosity as to which one broke on you! ;) ;) ;)

Beautiful work, Kevin, very good idea.            

I wish i could come up with good ideas like you and your brother do but thanks for the inspiration and encouragement! ;)

Right back at you Smitty :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs:Thanks

Hhmmmmm interesting idea, but I would be more inclined to use polymer clay because I know that works but as this is an experiment, go for it.
