my laptop is seriously overheating.
my face is on fire.
yikes!
oh! my record bowl is finally complete!
Fiiiiiinally purchased a cheap old record from Dave's Boutique on Smith street (it's closing down! laaaaame)
[one dollar. woot!]
and turned it into a bowl. to hold....... stuff.
It was so easy to do that I'm going to include instructions.
1) turn your oven on to 100 degrees.
2) place an upturned bowl onto a tray and place the record on top.
3) place in oven and shut door.
4) wait (and watch!) until you see the record start to droop.
5) after a few minutes (when the record is droopy) take it out of the oven.
[the record will be cool to touch, not sticky or anything]
6) using your hands, mould the record around the bowl underneath
7) after 30 seconds or so the record will have cooled down and hardened.
ta-da!
If you're feeling creative, mould it into any other shape you like. It's just easy to use the bowl as a form.
Not happy with the result? Just put it back into the oven and do it all over again.
Something was mentioned about ensuring that you keep a window open nearby. Don't make the oven too hot or else toxic fumes can escape from the record and KILL YOU.
(maybe. google it for confirmation)
