Knowledge Of The Ancient History Of Cuttlefish Bone Casting?

I am in a jewelry I art class and chose Cuttlefish Bone Casting as the topic for my final paper. I know several techniques and how to, but I would like more history of the topic. Info on any artists currently using this technique is good too. Book references, www links, or any other medium for info is fine. Thank you.

How do I put a cast on my dogs leg?

Metal Casting
penny asked:


My 2 year old sheltie broke her leg for the second time. She had just had the metal plate taken off. The bone snapped at a hole where one of the pins had been. The 2 vets I have taken her to say casts usually don’t work, and that no vets use casts anymore. They have said I can try an external fixator (more pins, and external wires and scaffolding), or have the leg amputated. I am not convinced that the external fixator will work. She will have even more pin holes in her bone. I want to at least try a cast before I have her leg cut off.
(Her leg is currently in a soft cast put on by the vet. She is very mobile and is even starting to put a little weight on the leg when standing.)
I am still trying to find a vet (I am in west GTA near Guelph) who will cast the leg, but if not, I am looking for any suggestions on how to cast the leg myself, to at least give it a chance to heal, before proceeding with the amputation.
