 Just outside enjoying a little bit of a drizzle right now Looks as though the rain is starting to slowly pick up today. I Wanted to show you guys something really cool since I showed you guys my planter on yesterday and another cool thing is Look how much my lettuce grew that is Almost like an inch and a half higher than it was yesterday. This stuff is just coming straight up. That's amazing So previously in my other videos. I did Mold cleanings which are plaster molds that you do slip cast in But I'm not sure if you guys realized how many we have Let's go ahead and pan in real quick In here we have over 2,000 slip cast molds and they were donated to my My fiance's mother from a woman who could elected them for over 40 years But eventually she got arthritis and she couldn't do it anymore Because they're heavy because you have to fill them up and then you have to pour the slip out and it can get quite hefty but We don't even have an idea of all of the ones that we have and all of the things that are in here and The thing is is some of these are so dirty. You have to clean them first to even know what's inside of them Like for an example, let's Grab one of these random ones down here Let's see the inside of it's really dirty doubt because they were left outside and To the elements so some of them need a deep cleaning, but they can still work and then on that side It looks like it has some details too. So it's like a little house And of course we have some storage stuff in here things that we need to get rid of But even the wall on the opposite side is From the bottom all the way to the top is completely even up on the ceiling area full of these molds and We back up a little bit. We actually have two separate sections right here Completely full of Molds if we go around this little pathway that we made we have another shelving on this side It's completely full of these full of these plaster molds and you never know what these things are going to make You know and some of these there's only like half of them here. So we kind of need to You know figure out what we want to What to do about that we need to either find the other piece or we might have to throw them away Here's some of the things that actually come out of these guys You can make really cool things. So here's a interesting little It's a chicken and it looks like a soap dispenser. So you can make things like this and Even you know some decorative, you know holiday things as well I'll show you some more stuff at the end But I don't want to show you like all those guys because it's kind of a dark area back here But yeah, this is just showing you that all the way to the back There there's there's molds there's there's a lot of them And I want to show you some of the cool things that you can make out of them as well Towards the front So these are all like tiny little ones. Some of them are only one-sided So they're like pendants or like little medallions But some of them need two pieces So we keep a lot of our loose ones right here until we find the other half if we have it And then I do want to open a few of these for you guys so you can get like an idea Oh, look at this one. This is a uh semi truck You see right there It's pretty cool I'm gonna set that back down See, I had no idea what that was. I had no idea that that was a semi truck And this is one of the more dirty ones. I mean look at the inside of that. That's Probably got some creepy crawlies in there And then we have this area cleared off at the at the beginning of the shed And this is for mainly all the work that we're gonna do because you're gonna need some Little uh kind of velcro to you know clamp the two sides together when you pour in the slip Because they're all usually in two pieces. So you wrap it around there. So it doesn't leak out But look at all of these guys. I want to show you guys These were all made within the last like week And we have like some cute little kitty cats so we can get a good focus in on them We have the light in the background so it's kind of uh blowing things out a little bit We have some other cute little cats right there. I'll try to stay a little farther away. It seems to like that better We have some little bear right there polar bear and these are the ones I'm really interested in these are chest pieces And we're still trying to find the other ones But imagine making your own chessboard with your own chess pieces And these are probably one of a kind honestly And then here at the bottom we have Some of the bigger ones. This is like a Kind of probably like a milk a milk thing to pour it actually comes out the cow's mouth And then we have like a little bunny We have a pretty cool little seashell right here. We go around the side of this board I really like that one I have little cups too That probably has a lid to it somewhere Some of these designs on here are super intricate and really beautiful And you wouldn't even know until you filled it up with the slip And like I said, we have some flat ones as well. So right here we have a Kind of I think this is a pug Maybe it's a pit bull. I'm not too sure But they're a little kind of flat little cute kind of things you could use it It was like a ornament for like a Christmas tree or something like that We have Cool little things like this. This is really cute. This is a mouse on a clock. I really like that one But yeah, there's so many things I'm trying to keep this in focus because I'm using open camera right now and for some reason open camera It films better on my phone, but it also likes to go out of focus more So I'm keeping focus as much as I can for you guys Another cool thing right here. Let's actually take this outside real quick You get a better view This is a plate right here Look at that and these edges right here. This is all can be cleaned up and this might just because This might just be because of the Age of the mold. Maybe there's some stuff stuck in there Sometimes you have to run the slip through a few times and the slip will actually, you know, help the dirt come out of the mold but this right here If we open this up, this is actually the slip this is the Well slip if you haven't caught on is water mixed with clay And we take that off. That's all that it is And the molds they're made out of plaster So they absorb this moisture out of the clay and you let it sit in there for a few minutes Try to pop that on there We can there we go And after it's sat in there a little bit You can actually pour out the excess and the shell is what's left So when we poured this in it was completely full But when we pour it out the actual plaster absorbs a certain amount of it And then that's what holds really the design and you pour out the excess back into the bucket to reuse So you can imagine with how much we have we have this bucket that bucket One over there. We also have some clay blocks as well We have all you can mass produce pretty much any of these guys The only problem is is they need to be fired at about I'd say one thousand eight hundred to two thousand degrees And uh, we have a kiln, but we don't have the right electrical outlet for it And even if we did we don't really want to spend the electricity But maybe our friend would be willing to do that But uh, I was thinking of maybe trying to do a little experiment with epoxy resin And maybe there would be a way to somehow incorporate these guys into it But yeah, let's do another pan in real quick of the uh Amazing kind of collection we got here. Like I said over two thousand molds in here And uh, the reason I said it took me two weeks to clean my garage Is because I moved Every single one of these in here and stacked them Um, some of them were already done maybe like two shelves, but Between me my fiance and her mom we all just We drug them in here on a cart and just covered the shelves with them and It's amazing because every time you want to go and make something it's kind of uh, like opening a gift you don't know which one you're going to get and It could create something really cool and if uh, we ever have the way to fire them Then we can make them as solid as like a mug like a coffee mug And you can paint them you glaze them and make them look really nice But yeah, I hope you guys found this kind of cool and interesting and uh I'm really excited to uh, maybe eventually start, you know Making things out of these cleaning them out and uh, showing you guys kind of the little Adventure that we got going on in here And as always, I'll see you In the next video
