My Sully is starting to grow, and I definitely want to remember hum at various stages....
In the NICU I have used the 3D gel molding compound to make duplicate hands and feet of tiny infants. If it is safe for them I am confident it is safe to make a copy if my Sully's shell. It takes just a few minutes to set, is non-toxic and i can later pour a plaster of paris or resin cast.
The first will be resin turned into a lovely clear resin night/light/lamp base. Later I might make tables, planter holders or other items that remind me of his life and growth. Or I might make shotcrete models to add ti his outdoor enclosure. Painted, they will be memorable yard art for the generations of family who will be living with Sully.
This is the compound I am using for his carapace… I have successfully used it on 23 week old preemies
