Plaster of Paris

Anyone around here into plaster casts (like for broken bones, etc,) ?

When I first saw the title of the post, I immediately thought of The Plaster Casters. These were a group of girls who made casts of the package of many male stars in the early 70s.

I know there are at leats a few of us cast lover around here. I know that there have been a few posts about this. Anyway, I'm definately into casts. Let me know if you want to talk about it.

I was just curious, really. I have had a fascination with all things medical since being in hospital as a small child in the 1960's, especially medical means of making people do what they might not otherwise (e.g. laxatives, naso-gastric tubes, catheters, etc.) and means of stopping people from doing what they might want to (e.g. plaster casts, leg braces, etc.).

I already have a presence in the "mainstream" cast community and came here to see who else was interested in other areas.

Casting is one of my greatest fantasies as well. I really hope I get to do this someday.

While fantasies are fun the real thing isn't. Most bones take six weeks to heal. I can tell you from experience after six weeks in a plaster cast you will be more than glad to get rid of it.

They are hot smelly and itch.
