I am a PCB designer by trade with 3D modelling experience in design of small enclosures. Creating physical 3D models on the cheap is something that I've been interested in for a while. Building a scaled down CNC machine to learn how stepper motors, 3D axis controllers and CNC software works at a minimal cost was my goal. I've managed to do this for only $45 and a few evenings.

Beat Poet concrete rings are an awesome use of reclaimed cement that is cast onto stainless steel. Rings are made unique as they are worn, chipped, bumped and otherwise 'personalized' by the wearer. The rings are inspired by Brutalist architecture; the reclaimed concrete that makes them comes from demolished buildings, among other sources.

Art Concrete: Links
As I find links (bookmarks) useful in connecting the worlds of concrete, cement, and art, I will add them to this list. If you have the book Concrete Handbook for Artists , this list will be more up to date.

The SET collection involves several steps from inception to completion. Silicone molds are made of the specific shapes required which are then cast with concrete. The stainless framework is set within the concrete in the molds which provide the strength to the concrete shape. The raw concrete shapes are removed from the molds after several days of curing and finished using a diamond grinder and belt sander. The Vent pieces shown are of the initial laser welding stage. The pieces are then ground down to remove edges and weld lines, powder coated and finished by hand.
