Step 5: Constructing the floatation tank What you’ll need: Clear plastic lid with a diameter of 9 cm and height of 2.5 cm, polyfilla, gelatin, blue food colouring, clay, LED tea candle • Start with a small amount of clay and shape it to a five pointed “star” shape. Once you have formed the head, hands and legs arrange them into a “floating” position and add a bit of definition to the areas where the main muscles are supposed to be. Leave the clay to dry overnight. • Use a craft knife and/or scissors to cut a hole in the middle of the lid big enough for the LED of the candle to go through.
• Apply some polyfilla to the base of the lid, where it meets the candle. Let it dry for at least 3 hours. • Make 4 rectangular shapes out of clay and with dimensions of 3 x 1 x 0.7 cm. Place them on top of each other to make the stairs that lead into the floatation tank. • Soak the gelatin in cold water for 5-10 minutes. Fill a pan with water, put the gelatin into a bowl with 100 ml of water and bring it up to a slow simmer. When the gelatin dissolves, add a few drops of blue food colouring. • Pour the mixture in the lid and place in the fridge for at least 6 hours. • Place the clay figure on top of the jelly. • Place the floatation tank inside the chamber.
