• We gonna make the masterpiece first, cut a block of Poly urethane foam 250mm X 250 mm using a bend saw.
• After cutting, put the block of poly urethane in the lathe machine and shape it using the blades.

• Make the mould with a plastic (HIPS) using a vacuum forming machine.
• After remove the masterpiece for the mould and trim it nicely.

• Tear the cardboard into smaller pieces in a bucket using your hands or scissor.
• Pour water in the bucket with the pieces and soak the cardboard in the water for about 10 minutes.

• Crash the eggshells into small pieces and put them on the soaked cardboard.
• Add 4 spoons of Wheat flours on the mixture in the bucket. (The flour holds all the material together and makes it strong),
• Then stare to mix all the materials, make sure you mix carefully.

• Before you put in the material you have mixed, make sure you first apply Vaseline to the mould so that it can be easy to remove the final product (does not get stacked).

• Pour your material in the mould.
