Well lookie here. I personally want to congratuate you for your perserverance and the ability to figure it out on your own. Yes the key was to do 2 blanks at the same time and just swap parts. I told you it was simple. Your knots look spot on my friend. I am glad you had some fun. You now get that A+ you deserve. Thanks for playing.


John, i would like to thank you personally for helping us members to take segmenting up a level .. It is good that we have members like yourself and a few others to inspire us and stop us going stale .. I am sure i speak for others as well as myself with this message my friend ...

And a great big well done to Frankie and Doug for conquering this challenge ... :thumbs:

I will second this 100%. There was a time when this thing did take place on another forum but has long been lost. I really appreciate the members here that are willing to try new things. It makes coming to a site like this so enjoyable.


Lets continue to have some more fun. I have a challenge for those that cast their own blanks that someday I will post if I ever get it done.

Well done Frankie. Lovely work the metal looks fantastic. I've thoroughly enjoyed the weekend trying to crack this one. I'm now on attempt eight and following your tutorial. Thanks again.

Thanks also to everyone who has shown their work and risen to this challenge. This forum is a melting pot for ideas and I/we never stop learning. Kind regards. Fiona

The winter weather is just about here John, which doesn't help with the casting of resin which i am sure you are well aware of .. But we do get a few weeks of summer, but unfortunately i can't give you any particular month as it changes yearly ... :ciggrin:
