List of supplies, can we get money to fund it?
Where can we build the forms? Room in the Science center to make them?
How long do they take to dry/harden? Can it be done in the basement and how much room do they take up while drying, do they need ventilation?
Need to figure out a way to attach them together because each side is built separately, this should also be sustainable also?
How many should we make? How many are in the Science Center now, how many should we aim on replacing?
Budget:
Blenders -5 $12 at Walmart
Plywood-4ft X 8ft, 3/4 thick- $15 each Lowes
Plaster- $2 100 lb bag (2-3) more for more recycling bins
Paper- hopefully get it free from the schools recycling
Total: $84….but would need to buy more plaster to make more bins
We are planning on meeting with Kristina and talking over the project and the process for making the molds sometime in the next week to figure out some of the questions we have including:
How long to dry?
Does it shrink?
Specific plaster type?
Ratio for mixing the paper plaster and water?
