So, the next technique I'm going to show is using a preformed bucket, such as something
like this, which I brought with me today. The preformed shapes already have designs
inside the bucket, so all you're going to do is pack sand into it, and then build it
in whatever form you like. So, we're going to first, just scoop sand into the bucket,
and what you want to do is use your hands and just pack it down as tight as you can.
Once you've packed the sand in, it's a good idea to add a little bit of water on top,
and then add a little bit more sand. It will help pack it in there so it doesn't fall apart
as you begin to put it together. The next thing you're going to do is turn it over.
You want to be, feel free to put a hand on top, it'll help it from falling out, but you
want to do it fairly quickly so the sand doesn't come out too fast. Once you get it in your
location, it's good to squeeze it. It'll help loosen up the sand in the beginning. And then,
all you have to do is release it, and there's your piece.
