I’m Michael Tyler and for more than 8 years I have been creating Vectric’s Free monthly projects. I’ve made everything from spring wreaths and mantle clocks, to snow sledges and cheeseboards.
Did you know there are already more than 80 projects free for Vectric customers to take advantage of and we’re working on more every month? Each zipped project includes the files relating to the project as well as a comprehensive PDF guide that covers all the key steps help you complete your project - including tips on materials, tooling and finishes. Since 2018 free projects also come with their own video that tells the story of the project from start to finish.
This deep sea inspired soap dish is an easy to make project, carved and cut from 1" x 6" PVC trim board material found at any home center store. The sample imitates a thick-cast bronze metal block with a shallow shell motif dish and a seahorse ornament complimenting the oceanic theme. It is coated with thick bodied metallic paints and a patina applied to yield an aged appearance. Hidden weight (BB pellets) inside the block assembly gives a “heft” to add to the illusion it is made of cast metal.
The finished dimensions of this project are approximately 6.4" W x 4.4" D x 1.45" T
If you go ahead and create this project, then it would be great to see a photo of your finished piece over on the Vectric Forum. Alternatively feel free to email us a picture of your finished piece at online@vectric.com.
