    I made this in my foundry cl*** at school. Aluminum with br*** bolts. The next one will be cast in bronze. Thought I'd share,

    I'll look into casting a few multiples. If I can, I'll let you all know.

    Your knobs are the **** man! (that sounded a little gay) I am doing the pattern for the next one out of sculpey, and since we're only doing bronze this part of the cl***, that's what she'll be. This cl*** is offered at my local community college, and I'll probably end up taking it again next semester. Cool to be able to make cool **** in school, and have fun.

    It is at American River College (in Sac). Called ART 371, metal casting with bronze and aluminum. It is RAD!
    You can look up the description of the cl*** online through ARC's website.
