Concrete-calypse

The day of the casting was mayhem. About 50 students entered the competition and when the concrete truck pulled up to the school they all rushed it. Molds were failing left and right, some from student inexperience, others from sheer weight.




Our individual molds all held together. We lined the inside of our molds with Vaseline and polyurethane to setup a smooth transition of the brick out from the mold. We will be removing them on Wednesday and then stuffing them with plants before judging, which takes place Friday.
