"Hi Zach,Thank you again for your comment on my project.This video was record during the 2020 lockdown, and I wanted to continue to do my material research to prove I can also do it with what I had at hand locally. For that, I had to change the proportions, use unconventional tools, find my raw material for the recipe around me (so no cost included because all I did is take wasted oyster shells that were given to me by the restaurant). I had no furnace, no proper equipment, no laboratory, and I manage to make that material, even if it's a little bit porous indeed.Making a new material takes time, the goal wasn't to be ableto eat cereal out of it immediatly (i wish but it's not that easy, otherwise you would do it too I guess). I'm still working on the material research part to be able to use and sell my product but I can say I manage to completly reduce the porosity by having the good machines in a proper laboratory, by having more accurate measuring tools that alllows me to have more quantity of oyster shells and find the right balance in my recipe, having the right equipment. No need to burn the shells for 2 hours, also no need to seal it with something or use concret to fill it, it's a natural chemical reaction that make the oyster shell bond together. "

"Hi Alex, Thank you for your comment on my project.Indeed, because of the terrible state of the climate and planet, a lot of people are trying to find solutions and alternative to pollution plastic instead of stand still, and I think that's great. My challenge in creating this new material is that there is absolutly no plastic in it, it's a natural chemical reaction in my recipe that makes the material bond together. "
