Hi wonderful people, it's been a minute! I need to make an oversized beer bottle that will appear to empty when tipped up (without fluid exiting the bottle,) and then magically refill when upright again. I understand some of it in theory: a small amount of fluid is held in a space between an outer and inner bottle. When tipped, the fluid runs into the cap (or top of the bottle) area. How would you cast this? As one unit or two separate pieces / steps? What material would you cast it in? Is there a hole between the two bottles for air/fluid circulation? This would be about 1.5X life size and needs to be relatively light weight for a backpack puppet to handle. For anyone unfamiliar, I'm thinking something like the magic baby bottles here: https://www.amazon.com/Click-Play-Magic-Disappearing-Bottles/dp/B077G59GQF/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=3LVU8TFQQ3Y33&keywords=magic+baby+bottles&qid=1704782986&sprefix=magic+baby+bottle,aps,119&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&th=1 TIA!
