Just lost pla cast zombie hands only and all imperfections are just part of the hand! Perfect cover.

Thanks for the tip on using pla shells for patterns. Looks awesome!

I appreciate the nice close up shots at the end. It turned out pretty great considering how it was made.

That turned out sweet! Perfect thing to cast where imperfections are necessary

Woah. You can even see the layers from the print on the wrist area! That's detailed.

That is really cool!

More of these needed!

I was glad to see you use joint compound. I've been wondering how it would hold up. Thanks for showing that

swdweeb You bet! I’ve had much better results with it using this technique. For whatever reason this one didn’t turn out all that nice.

Could you have filled the cavity inside with the sodium silicate sand as a core? Would it have helped or just been an unneccessary step?

Cool, that worked better than I expected it to. And where it didn't come out perfect, it seemed to actually enhance the casting due to its decaying nature anyhow. 😀

Tobho Mott It’s definitely an appropriate finish for a decaying hand. Thanks for watching!

Agreed--can't mess up a decaying zombie hand!

About a minute in, I was thinking to myself, "I wonder if I could use this in conjunction with sodium silicate sand." Look no further, you immediately answered that question! Thanks for this video!

Wow this is amazing. Thank you for the feature!!

Fotis Mint Thanks for the awesome model!

Fantastic!👏👏👏👏👏

It looks amazing good job 👍

That's cool hands are such an art in themselves good stuff

That came out surprisingly well, Good job! David at THF invests the PLA in shell and burns it out. It's not as exciting as your pour. lol.

I remember when we had the same amount of follows.. You have been away for a looong time z... Keep up the God work

Yout videos are so cool and fun to watch! What got you interested in metal? And casting? Or even ancient weapons? 🤔

Too cool👍👍👍

I've never thought of using joint compound. Clever! I wonder if that would hold up to bronze or even iron though?

Nice job casting the hand. Silly question? about how much material do you think you used?

Where did you get the hand for the mold

I see you use sodium silicate to hold the sand rigid, but you didn't use any CO2. How long does it take for the sand to become rigid?

So when I tried loss pla casting in the past I tried to melt the plastic out before pouring the aluminum. Your telling me the aluminum will melt the plastic and get it out fast enough to not gum up the mold? I'm going to have to try again. Your joint compound is in a jar. Did you mix it with water or something?

It only works with single layer walls and only for certain shapes. Venting is crucial. If it’s not properly vented it could pop. I dint believe I mixed the joint compound with water. It’s been a while since I did this. Good luck!

Might just be me. I’d say given that is a zombie hand. The parts that didn’t turn out right. Make the thing better. That’s just me.
