John, I saw your recipe for mache, 1/2 plaster, 1/4 cellulose, 1/4 dextrine - I know this is a dumb question but you are talking by volume and not weight correct? thanks in advance.

Where could I buy cllulose and dextrine? Im not sure exactly what they are. Thanks.
bobs taxidermy in NY if you need # eme
Cellulose can be purchased at your local lumber yard, it is one type "blow in" insulation. Dextrine can be found in most taxidermy supply catalogs. Set up time is regulated by the plaster that you mix in. Homemade mache car require a considerable amount of mixing to get a uniform mixture due to the tendency of the cellulose to clump.
