Through the coaching session I started looking at what shape the balance cushion should take. I also have a balance pad myself and examined why it looks that way.
Balance cushion
As you can see in the picture it has a dotted side. This is intended so that you do not slip when you do your workout on a carpet. The other side is smooth, which makes it difficult to slip on a wooden floor.
What I also thought about is what I paid a while back for this balance cushion and €30 is a ridiculous price for a small piece of rubber filled with air. The quality is poor and as you stand on it you can feel the surface below and that is not challenging at all while working out. What I get out of this is that you should pay more if you want a good balance cushion.
I tested with the gelatin based bioplastic I created last week if it slips away on a wooden surface and on a carpet. It did not slip away.
Molds
I want to try different shapes to cast in bigger molds. I've teared down an old broken clock and going to use the housing as mold. This would be a flat mold. For a rounded shape i want to use a salad bowl
