Bowl
Today I am going to show you a bowl that I had made during lessons a few weeks ago. I used scroll saw to saw the acrylic, after that I used flat file to file. After filing, I used a piece of damp wet-and-dry paper to smoothen the edges. I apply the brasso, metal polish, to the sides of the acrylic. I placed the acrylic into the oven and heat it, after 10 minutes, my acrylic became soft and I placed it in the mould. It was very hot when I took it out with a pair of gloves. After placing my bowl into the sink and wash with soap, it is ready.
