MAKING
THE SMALLEST AQUAFLOATS
The
World's Smallest Polymer Clay Scuba Divers
I was commissioned by a client in United State to create the smallest Aquafloats, I had
chosen Sculpey Premo polymer clay, it proved to be strong and flexible for tiny detail.
To further making it more realistic, I also utilized a little rubber clay for its thin web feet. After
the completion it was tested in a mixture of salt water to create buoyancy. The test was
successful, it's amazing and fun to see the tiny Aquafloat suspending in the middle of the
water container for a long time.
Hey! What are you doing to me
in the oven?
Ahhhhhhhhh.......give me the
air tank !!!!
Waahaaa.........I'm rich !!!!
Let me go.....you big bully
!!
Where is everybody ?
Well, one thing for sure there
isn't any shark around.
Thanks, now I have more company
to go diving in the container.
The above are more display of the Aquafloats from 1 1/ 2" to less than 3 / 4" some of
them are prototype and I am still experimenting and adjusting its floating and buoying
position.
Client's Comments:
Garie,
We received the items ... they look great. You do excellent work. We will
start testing ASAP. It will probably take a couple of months to see how
well they work in the environment. In the meantime, I guess we could do
some rough scopings to see what the mass products costs would be.
What do you think? I appreciate your feedback.
Thanks.
Cheers,
Dave
