britetomro Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 This Shell was completed last month. It is made out of Corian and the name is White Jasmine. Corian only comes in 1/2" thick pieces so I had to glue three layers together in order to obtain the thickness needed to create the wedges needed to make this shell. Overall it has 63 segments and curls inside 3 times. Corian is somewhat easier to work with on the scroll saw but it makes finer dust when cutting and the sanding needed to obtain the desired finish is truly a big mess. The stand is also made of two layers of black Corian and shaped to create a cup for the Shell to rest in. Thanks for looking.

Lucky2 Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 I was thinking the same as Marg, the white corian does make it look like a real shell. Well done, I can imagine the dust storm from all of the sanding. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
