Wood Brain at the Unique Spring Show 2013





(Click on Logo's for links to sites)

Our first ever Unique LA show was a huge success. We had such an amazing weekend.
Our booth was a collaboration between, Dawn Sinacori of Seadrift Soul, Meredith Harbuck of Meriebabie handbags and myself Lindsay Zuelich of Wood Brain. The three of us shared a 10'x20' booth space and used all the footage to our advantage. We had many creative meetings between the three of us, gathering our concepts and designs for our booth space. Meredith did a mock up of what the three of us envisioned for our space for the Spring 2013 show in Sketch-Up. (pictured below)

The Unique LA Spring show is held every year on Mother's Day weekend in the California Mart's penthouse suite on the 13th floor. It was our first time participating in a Unique show. We wanted to be a fully prepared for anything we would run into during our set-up at the California Mart. 

We were one of the first to arrive on set-up day Friday May 10th the day before the show. We made many trips using the freight elevator and learned some tips from the veterans that had done these shows many of times. After everything was off loaded we went to work on constructing our booth. We detoured a little from our original design model but in the end we were happy with our booth layout. check out the pictures below for a little recap of set-up and the show.

Now that all the fun is over for the Unique LA Spring show, its time for me to gear up for the Unique CAMP June 6-9. I'll be headed to a outdoors business conference for 4 days. I'll be sure to write a blog about all my adventure when I get back. In the mean time you can check out more about the Unique CAMP on this link.

Epoxy Skull and Walnut Wood Brain

Epoxy Skull with Wood Brain Wood Brain by Lindsay Zuelich In today’s video I’m showing you how I made a life size epoxy skull with a life size walnut wood brain to fit inside. I started by making mini skulls first and figure out what worked and what didn’t. I started by figuring out how to make silicone molds for casting. This took me awhile to figure out which products and methods worked best. I found that using a pressure pot set at 35-40 PSI when making the silicone molds gets all the tiny bubbles out for a perfect casting. I also used the pressure pot when I poured the epoxy and left it in the pressure pot for 24 hours before de-molding. I used Total Boat thickset for the epoxy, which worked great. I used BBDINO platinum silicone 1:1 mold making for making my silicone molds. Once I figured out the epoxy skulls I moved onto making wood brains to fit inside on my OneFinity CNC. I then used a Dremel to carve out the underside of the brain so that they fit in the epoxy skulls just rig

Ultimate Garage Makeover With Xyla Foxlin

BEFORE Check out my YouTube video of the transformation of Xyla‘s garage while you’re at it check out her video as well. Ultimate Garage Makeover Wood Brain by Lindsay Zuelich In today’s video I’m sharing with you how I helped transformed my friend @xylafoxlin newly rented garage into a bright and functional workshop. Because Xyla is renting but has a one year lease, we wanted to try and do as many renter friendly things as possible, and we ran all the other ideas by her landlord in advance for approval. We started by giving the garage a really good cleaning then painted the rafters of the garage with white paint. We opted to not insulate the walls … I KNOW!… I’m sure I’ll hear about it in the comments. But we didn’t insulate. After we put the walls up (without the insulation) we painted the walls white and hung wallcontrol on the areas that we wanted to hang tools. Once the walls were addressed we tackled the floors. The rear section of the shop has some weird floor damage to the co
