Resin Casting of Giant Brown Bull Ant Nest - Brooloo 20180901 - First Attempt

Video Description

First attempt at a resin casting of a Giant Brown Bull Ant Nest (Myrmecia brevinoda) by Australian Ant Art™ www.facebook.com/australianantart We attempt a resin casting of a brevinoda nest with a bonus nigrocincta nest cast in aluminium. This was a large project with a steep learning curve. We played around a bit with the resin before hand but experience is the best teacher. Even though we did not get a perfect casting we still got some spectacular results which are not really possible with any other casting technique. We hope you are not too creeped out but bugs because we got lots here, frozen in place. Myrmecia brevinoda is one of the largest ants in Australia, with workers more than 30 mm in length and the queen over 40 mm. They are aggressive with excellent eyesight and a painful sting.
