For the time and money in parts...this option does seem to make more sense.  Hat's off on the technique though, nice work.

Well, after trying to use the food color and not being able to see it I figured I would try something different. Plain old Gold Medal Flour and water worked great for me. It made it much easier to see but I did everything else the same.

Yes, I guess imageshack deleted some of the pictures for reasons unknown.  I don't have the originals anymore, so unless someone saved them, they're gone forever.
