Australia's Science Forum

After such a fantastic workshop at last years St Mary's conference, I was asked to try embedding a seadragon which a student found on the beach while on an excursion. After much experimenting with smaller specimens, I finally got the courage to try the sea horse. First attempt was a disaster as I had not reduced the catalyst proportion and the resin cracked. I patiently chiped him out and started again this time being very cautious. I'm very proud of the results and everyone comments on them when they come into the prep room. Very difficult to take photos of and marks in the resin seem to show up more than they do in real life. - Anyway here's a couple of pictures so I can show off my work!

you did a great job.Unfortunatly I didnt get to that workshop and was hoping it would be on this year.....boo hoo its not.Is it possible to PM me with the recipie so I could try?

Well done, perhaps you can set up orders. You know one ant, or one sea horse. They do look very very good. clever you.

Wow! Where's the emoticon for envy??

Good job!

WOW!! Kathryn, they look fantastic!! I don't know what marks you are worried about. I don't see any! Well done

Hey Noona, maybe that's one workshop to run again next year?

They look Fantastic!!!!!!
I would love to know how to do that.
Can you send or post instructions on how to do that? Pretty please?
I would love to try it with some of our deceased stick insects!

Hi All

Wow you have done such a great job . Could the instructions be posted as I would like to try with some things I have here.

If you are coming to the conference this year and would like a booklet let me know so I can copy extra's

Yes please I would really apprecate a booklet.

I am unable to make the conference so a copy of the booklet that I can download and print out would be fantastic. Thanks Noona.

yes please I too would love a copy to add to the wonderful resources I am finding through this site to help me on my learning curve in science

Thanks for your kind comments - they are lovely aren't they
Definately speak to Rosalie if you are wanting more info on how to do it, she is the pro, I'm an amateur. The little ones were easier than I expected, the seahorse was more chanllanging. Buffing them up so they look nice takes a lot of time and arm power!
