Finished product.** This image was taken after 2 weeks of letting the SCOBY sheet dry. It was still sticky so I let it dry further so I washed it with a bit of soap. After washing it, the sheet got very crispy and crumbled into tiny pieces so I won't be doing that again. Still don't know how to solve the stickiness issue. Maybe I needed to dehydrate it rather than air dry. + ## Discussion I wish I had more time to explore the different recipes for making bioplastic. I'm particularly interested in making yarn. I found the key to making the yarn was applying an even pressure to the syringe. It would be cool to get enough to crochet a hat or something with it. Maybe I will try adding the thermochromic paint in the mixture next time. diff --git a/docs/assignments/week08.md b/docs/assignments/week08.md index 17ea6f878612d6878fd1e63a3364332ebe8a28c1..8f03a7217ca26e7fd346bf4de7c1d3b070fd8045 100644 --- a/docs/assignments/week08.md +++ b/docs/assignments/week08.md @@ -34,6 +34,11 @@ **Video.
