Melissa Goldman_Test 5

So, I tried taking Peter's idea with the stretched nylon in a cage, but in the rotational molder to make hollow pieces. As per suggestion, I added "reinforcing" fiber to the rockite mix. That was a bad mistake. The fiber congealed all the concrete together in a ball rather than allowing for the mix to coat the inside of the nylon. Perhaps the nylon was also a bad surface to coat as it rotated and something like latex would be better.
