    well how much gold or plat powder could you possibly need for an
    experiment a 3 foot press could allow you to work on a small scale.
    you have most likley already tried these ideas i'm going to mention
    maybe you could roll some plat down reaallleee thin and the gold too
    set it up like metal lasagne alternate powder & sheet maybe the
    other powder will bond with the sheet. maybe you could try chopped up
    bits of wire with powder mixed between like elbow noodle salad. you
    could do tiny little lucky charm type shapes with powder around them
    after its bonded the shapes will get bigger when rolled or even more
    awsome set up the process so the patterns come out like fossilized
    sea creatures it could be moku me - whatever japanse word for rock
    strata is  - goo
