    Today's project and shave.
    B.S Black diamond wearing scales made from 100% grocery bags. A more subtle pattern.
    Bags were cut into roughly 2 inch squares and melted. They appeared quite stringy and I was concerned they wouldn't form into the sheet very well. They did!

    Most of this came from food packaging, like the one in the pic. The pulled pork was delicious

    A recent Goodwill find of a convection oven will allow me to heat my plates to the full melt temp and I should be able to make sheets with a smoother finish, allowing me to skip sanding out wrinkles from too cool of a surface when pressing. Now I suppose I should polish my plates too
