Garden Update March 19

Spring begins tomorrow. My neighbors have cut down their ugly sycamore maple, which may allow more sunlight to fall on my vegetable garden, I've picked my first handful of snowpeas, and I need to extend their trellis. I also need to weed the red onions. Something ate a few of the newest broccoli, but the remainder is doing well.

The rain has triggered explosive growth in the wild grass, and I need to mow again soon.

I'm really busy, and while I had some back trouble on Saturday, it has resolved itself. I stopped, took an ibuprofin, and rested my back, and that did the trick.

Old Molds

I'm going through and sorting molds, but I don't exactly know what I'm doing. I found this whole assembly, with a plaster box, and inside of it, is a plaster mother mold, with a rubber master mold inside and around it. It looks like the master mold has never been removed from the mother mold, so excess rubber has to be cut away. I decided not to screw around with removing it until I know more. I have seven production molds of that specific object, so I probably won't need to make more in the near future.

I did unpack and inventory everthing earlier, but now what I'm seeing makes more sense, I'm seeing some kooky molds that I probably should throw away. I'm going to focus on the just the pre-columbian Central and South American pieces.
