It is especially pleasing when you take a square piece and mold it on an inflatable drum sander, watching it take its final shape. The finish was an experience as well, I used a coat of hide glue over the base coat, and then when the latex coat is applied it crackles up. My little ones love it!/p

I don#8217;t know if it#8217;s fair or not, I had made this mobile a few years back for Halloween. Did hang them on the porch one year and they looked really cool, fluttering around in the breeze!

Incredibly, they survived the fall, one ending up two stories down on the ground! So I restrung and hung them in the shop, to remind me of some of my #8220;battier#8221; ideas#8230;/p
