At the moment one of our classes (engineering) we have to make tiles in ceramic. This is a pretty hellish process as they have to be super perfect and when your tile shifts during the first stage already (pouring the plaster for the mould) you know you have problems- yes..Famke has problems. Following this my mould broke when producing my fifth tile. Oh the joy of ceramics. We were to produce a tile with a pattern on it, the tile should be able to be arranged into at least three different patterns, one with no gaps. Here is the process so far..It's really an exercise in testing your patience! - Enjoy!
This is my mould.
Hammering the tile out of the mould. Sore biceps.

Trying to figure out what went wrong...
Figured out what went wrong!
Dirty clothes..part of the fun
And my final tiles, with an approving stare from dear Obama..
