Molding and casting blue whale flipper bones

After being handled by thousands of hands at the Beaty museum, the set of blue whale flipper bones we had made were needing to be retired.  This was a fun little project to reproduce and paint the flipper bones from the molds we had made in 2010. The world of molding and casting is developing rapidly these days, so it's always fun to geek out on new products and materials each time we do a casting job!
