I am The Bone Builder | INDIE ALASKA

You could say that #skeleton building is in his #bones. Lee Post's articulated creations can be found in #museums and visitor centers across Alaska and the Lower 48. Every summer, Post guides students at the Peterson Bay Field Station through a mystery bone-building project.

THIS is cool.

[@tinaseaton8442]

Thank you! Lee has been such a great role model and mentor to so many young people!

[@richardcorona252]

thanks, I for some strange reason I thought it would be calming for me to reassemble bones into a art form. This makes me want to do it even more, I'll give it a shot.

sir how it become perfect white

[@wothebonsaiharvester3595]

BENCY WlLSON hydrogen peroxide 40%volume clean in that it doesn't take much, if to much it will destroy the bones

[@jedavisLV426]

Boil in 40% peroxide 60% water. Just bring to a boil and then let it simmer and soak for no longer than an hour (increase time on large bones, it all depends on getting the desired whitening) boil too long and the bones can be damaged

[@bencywllson8638]

i also want to do it help me.
