Extruded Oil Bottle Workshop
Extruded Oil Bottle Workshop
Do you have an extruder but don't know how to really make the best use of it?
Are you bored of just making handles and coils with your extruder?
Do you find using the extruder hard on your body?
In this workshop, I, Charan Sachar, will help you overcome all those obstacles. I will guide you through the entire process of how I design and make my oil bottles.
This workshop was pre-recorded and edited with multiple views and angles, showing detail close up shots. This is a two part video with the first part (1 hour 17 min) being the workshop showing the entire process and the second part a Q&A session (50 min) with the students who attended this live.
