After preforming some vigorous mathematical calculations (repeated cylindrical volumetric estimation), I found a number based on the scale of the model for the volume that the model itself would take up, which is 400 inches cubed. The polyurethane that polytek markets is 26.9 in³/lb, so I plan to purchase the 15 lb kit, which I have filled out a requisition form for. I also calculated how much silicone I would need for the mother mold, and I plan to purchase a 16 pound kit. My next step is creating the polymer clay base structure that I’m making the mold around.

Amidst the copious time-demanding tasks required of the college applications, I have decided that it would be best to make myself a realistic winter timeline of everything I plan to accomplish from now until the New Year, taking into account the other college apps I still have to complete! So, I have attached a document with my plans/timeline and goal(s) for the New Year. I will also be meeting with Mrs. Carsley soon to discuss my project's progress.
