Epoxying a mug

So, one of our team at work went on holiday to Peru and left his mug behind him in Dublin. And was scheduled to return on April 1.

You know, it’s harder than you think to shatter a mug using a wedge from the inside out so it doesn’t look like some heathen just belted it with a hammer…

Foamcore mould, held together with packing tape and hotglue.

And now we start the first of several batches of resin…

And today, a few months late (but these things are expected to run over schedule and this was waaaaay less late than a lot of others), this arrived…

Bit of a haul carrying that home by hand, but worth it…

Wifely approval…

It was the protoplasmic shelter for that foul invading race
And what I don’t understand is how you fell into their plan —
I can’t think of one good reason why you put it in your face ♬
