A subscriber gave me the idea to try making something out of resin and coffee beans, so I decided to give it a try. I was going for a coffeehouse style handle less mug, which I think turned out cool, but I wasn’t too happy with the saucer I made. For those wondering, the resin is food-safe once fully cured, and I used mineral oil for a finish so technically it’s ok to drink out of. And you may have noticed there’s nail polish on the fingers making the coffee. That’s my wife making South Indian filter coffee, which is amazing if you ever get a chance to try it!
