Oh and here's another bump too... All credit for the technique goes to Pat Ohta. While he didn't mind if I taught the class, I don't want to just go sharing everything without consulting him first. The class was fun for those who actually came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And all trace of him seems to have vanished from the WWW. Any chance you can share some details on the how-to side. What's used to create the form. The resin mentioned is a pout product so you need a shape to pour it into. What did he use? ---------- Post added at 12:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 PM ---------- All credit for the technique goes to Pat Ohta. While he didn't mind if I taught the class, I don't want to just go sharing everything without consulting him first. The class was fun for those who actually came out. He's AWOL. I've been looking all over the web for him. I would love to ask him directly if he would share the idea. If not I understand. When other builders ask how I do water effects I am not exactly forthcoming. BUT I am still making a living at what I do and don't need competition replicating what I have worked hard to perfect. Pat Ohta seems to be out of the terrain building business. I can't find anything posted later than 2009. If you have a way to make contact, please ask about sharing the technique? Honestly, I have a customer who would probably have asked Pat about making terrain or how to make this and came to me when there was no one to find and ask. let me know if you have any ideas Any reply is a help Thanks either way.

MVM Posted January 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Hey all, I'll see what I can find for photos. Step 1 drill a hole in plywood about the size of the base. Step 2 make a cone out of waxed paper and pull it through the hole. Step 3 tape waxed paper to plywood. Step 4 pour resin into waxed paper. The waxed paper actually becomes part of the finished product. I'll see if I still have photos anywhere... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
