Скачать или смотреть Metal Casting a Solid Bronze Buck from Scrap

I melted down scrap metal into an alloy called Nordic Gold which is a type of bronze. It consists of copper, aluminum, zinc and tin. After making an 85% sand and 15% plaster mold, I cast the alloy and cleaned it up. I wanted to do vacuum casting for this, but sadly my power went out an hour before the pour.

*PROCESS NOTES:*
A lot of grinding, cutting, and polishing is required to get these casts into an acceptable state.
No cast is ever perfect; they all come with defects even in industrial settings.
These projects take days or even weeks for bigger ones.
All of the material that I use is from scrap that I take apart from around my area.
*Anything that I can't use like plastics and rubbers, I recycle at our local transfer station.
