<p>How do you go about doing this? Mix acetone with physarum and allow to dry or keep wet? Just picked up a fresh bottle yesterday for cleaning some stubborn glassware, now I'm thinking I'll have to give this a go.</p>

<p>Seeing as I accidentally watered a catering tray of Mazie with floor cleaner ( downside of reusing bottles - I really should label stuff ), I've started - 200ml absolute ethanol in a bottle, scraped off all the yellow goo and dumped it in. I'll keep adding gunk, when it looks to be about 50% solid material I'll decant, dry and try making a gel sheet with a suitably gothic holder</p>

<p>You're a madman, I'm in. maybe use gelatin to create a light filter gel and use that.</p>
