This month's Challenge is an original animal created by mashing up two or more other animals.

This challenge was inspired by a high school assignment and the fun had following March Mammal Madness (linked below). Andrew created a Koala Spider trying to make the creepy spider cute and Kipling made a Bat-Eared Falpion, combining a falcon and scorpion with bat ears.

This month our esoteric eggels and share our favorite smell memory and Andrew asks what piece of large equipment each wants.

This month's Challenge is an art piece inspired by the term “Wild City”.

This challenge stands out as just an art piece, when most of our creations have some type of function these purposes are just art. Andrew made a city covered by grass and dandelions he calls “Weeds above us” and Kipling made a copper tree as it up roots a house he calls “treed House”

This month our esoteric eggels and share our favorite wildlife sightings and we have chat about our current shop wonders and woe which oddly are magnets this time.

This month's Challenge is an original cast copper Monopoly piece.

We both had issues learning the new skills needed to create successful castings from melted copper. In the end Kipling made a sleigh a rustic Aladdin lamp and Andrew made a polished mini anvil.

As is now tradition we talk about some esoteric eggels and share our favorite pranks we have pulled and chat about our current shop wonders and woes.
