When we were on vacation, we visited a highschool friend of mine in Wisconsin. She’s always been great at origami and I brought along a scrap of PMC paper I had left. She folded up a quick little crane and I finally got around to firing it the other day. It came out great. And then I very gently wirebrushed it to bring up the silver and the delicate head broke off. AAAARRGGGHH!
So… I got out some oil paste (love that stuff) smooshed some on and in the folds where it broke to reinforce it and fired it again. And this time I put it in the tumbler which I’d been a little afraid to do the first time but I’d read you could do. That little Harbor Freight tumbler works great and brought up a nice shine.
Now I just have to package it up and send it off to my friend
