1. Put together the four pieces, make sure the two openings for the entrance (3/8inch tubing) and silicone tubing (from water reservoir) are where you want them to be. Secure them with binder clips.

1. (Optional) Place 3D printed sand mold on top of the platform base. Pour sand, and add enough water for sand to stay in shape. It is recommended to experience a few times to find the right amount of water needed. You can also shape the sand by hand.

1. Put acrylic sides on top of the platform base and add magnets. Make sure to press down the sides tightly so plaster will not leak.

1. Place the water reservoir where you want it to be. Add vinyl tubing for the entrance hole.

1. Mix plaster until it flows like syrup. Then pour before it hardens.

   

1. Wait until the plaster hardens and take everything apart.
