Here is the original whale tooth that I borrowed to make the mold.

 

 

This is a picture of the tooth ready to have a mold poured in silicone, I cut off the bottom of the solo cup and added a clay base to stand the tooth up in.

 

 

This is the first resin cast coming out of the completed mold.

 

 

 

 

Raw resin vs real tooth.

Just trying some stuff out.

 

 

 

Mocking up the base and decorative trim
