I thought I would make a cut star frame, it's suited to small scale star making rather than the loaf box type. It has removable slats so you can adjust volume and have little waste.

Just to let all know I have been busy.

Freud. Artists, in this view, are people who may avoid neurosis and perversion by sublimating their impulses in their work.

I probably wouldn't bother with the wing nuts to separate the frame, the mix pushed out without much trouble.very nice!i will make one like yours.
And it's a fine line with high charcoal content cut stars, one minute the mix seems too dry and the next you have a wet pudding. I didn't bother with a percentage of alcohol to the water which I do normally for pumped stars but I was aiming for a wettish mix anyway, to see how the stars burnt compared to the drier pump stars.
Out of interest is there a possible plasticizer that could be used to help workability of cut stars?
