Title: DIY foundation recipe
Post by: tbh-fan on June 04, 2007, 07:42:06 AM


hi, somewhere I already saw the procedure for making wax foundation at home by dipping plywood in melted wax
unfortunately, I dunno where I saw it - I think it was the Lusby's procedure- anyone knows where I could find it?

thanks

but i'm gonna try it this week, already bought the blue silikon for the mold and on wednesday i'm gonna get a 4.9mm foundation so with any luck, i'll have my first SC foundation by next weekend;)
