Milk Plastic Bridge
Milk plastic (casein) bridge. Finally got around to testing the milk plastic material I made. It's slightly softer than bone to work with. Seems suitable for a nut or bridge. I'm going to make some more of it and continue testing. Use 1 cup very hot (but not boiling) milk to one tablespoon white vinegar. Strain the solids and let dry. Dries hard like plastic.

Nice! Now when you are marooned on a desert island you can eat your bridge for the protein and amino acids!
