orgone tiles

The question is... how do you encase a crystal in orgonite without making it a permanent part of the piece?

The inner crystal needs to be compressed to work properly, and the orgonite does that rather well by compressing the crystal while it cures.  Since compression is key, I thought about making orgonite tiles to fit around the crystal and compressing them with a coil, then fitting a toroid mobius around the whole thing.  It occurred to me that using the mobius for compression would eliminate a step so I settled on a caduceus for the mobius.

I started out by making a tile from powdered metals and clear resin and slicing it into six equal pieces.  Since every quartz crystal has six sides, the tiles fit perfectly and made a most excellent compression on the crystal.

Orgonite tiles, made in this fashion, opens a whole world of uses from orgonite cocktail coasters to your own personal orgonite shower stall.  Now THAT sounds like an interesting idea.  An orgone accumulator-like chamber you use every day for 20 minutes, plus you have that water thing going.

I wonder if I can make a light weight, portable unit?
