This is the next step of making a handmade book. The girls ironing the wax so it melts into the paper. It's supposed to look like leather when it is done.
To reach the ironing board, Olivia is standing on a Mr. Potato Head bin. Montague (the dog) is superivising their work.

Detail of molten metal being poured in the MSE Advanced Lab in the Herbert H. Dow Engineering Building on the North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on Friday afternoon, February 17, 2023. The floor of the lab where the pour will happen has a layer of sand on it to protect it in case of spills.
The Advanced Lab is home to MSE 360, a course about structural materials used for building everything from vehicles to buildings and beyond. In the first half of the course, students learn standard alloys before moving into design. MSE 360 is an opportunity to gain experience in both theory and application.

A lovely Japanese themed evening event took place on Mon. July 18, 5 - 7 pm where Kelly Storm, Olds College, School of Environment, took us on a tour of ancient Japanese Gardens by looking through her camera lens on her trip of a lifetime in the summer 2009. The event included a sushi dinner complete with a sushi rolling and assembly demonstration and Ikebana Floral design presentation. A Silent Auction of donated plant and floral designs raised over $200 for the Canadian Red Cross - Japan Tsunami relief!
