How to turn a 3D PRINT into BRONZE │ Lost PLA Metal Casting │ ASMR
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Welcome to Robinson Foundry. In this video I will be using the lost PLA method to turn a 3d print into an awesome and colorful bronze casting. I started by printing the model on my 3d printer and then coated it with a ceramic material. I then fired the shell in my kiln and then poured brass into the shell. This is similar to the lost wax casting process.

Much appreciated, thank you!
Thanks for all the awesome comments! I hope you guys have a great weekend making cool stuff!
What a stunning design 👌✨ and you complimented it extremely well👍
What the?! Nice colors
this turned out amazing!! Zane is a really fantastic artist and to see his model transform into your metal casting was out of this world. every time i look at this metal sculpture and the previous ones, i wonder if people years from now finding and studying it like those sci-fi movies haha.

Best channel ever...
Every new design and mold created is more captivating than the last. I'm so glad I subscribed early when I did, this gives me hope for getting back into smelting again. Much love from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷

Glad to know I’m not the only one from Puerto Rico here :D
Covering ceramic with wire was a good intervention 👍
That patina is excellent
Awesome video, loved the bust's finish. You are very skilled.

This bust needed some jewel eyes as well 👁👁 Nice cromatic finish (y)
You have just won a huge compliment for all your work ... especially because the litmus finish is excellent !!!! I stand up and applaud you ... congratulations!!!👏👏👏👏
Really stunning results, I can't believe how much detail you manage to capture.
Wow, excellent result! By the way, thanks for telling us the temperatures and weights both in F/C and lbs/kg, much appreciated by all of us outside the US, doing so is something a lot of youtubers based in the US forget to do :)
That's an amazing job dude.. just outstanding

The end result is breathtaking... I've been 3d-printing for 3 years now, and I can only hope to have the possibility to do this soon.
This way of casting is incredible
Mesmerized from start to finish.
I love this piece
Wow nice patina. I like how you’re trying new finishes. This one may be my favorite.
Respect ❣
Not a fan of the models, but the skill of the artist and your work bringing them to life! Amazing!
very nice! I musta missed this one!
Amazing art and casting
legit awesome..
Im pretty confident that an archeologist will find these castings in like 500 years and be like "yeap, we found them boiz, the lost Aztec Gods, here they are!"
you did it perfectly
Amazing work! Have you considered trying to print an internal shell that is filled with casting sand and plaster to achieve a thin wall of bronze. Similar to lost wax casting of sculptures. This would use much less bronze.
Da hell dude! Those pieces are amazing!!!!!!!!!
Stunning.

Great work! Usually fine sand is used for a first layer and coarser sand for the rest. You may also consider building a "sand boiling bath" for even coating. This is what used in industry.
Big WOW. Good job. THX for sharing.
The patina really turned out great! Awesome job! I am really hoping to see more of your projects and I am hoping you'd make a championship belt plate, more specifically the "Big Gold" world heavyweight championship 'coz I've always wondered how belt makers cast bronze or brass in such a huge size. Hope you'll notice 😁
Amazing work as always. Excellent channel
Turned out fantastic! Love the finish

Awesome work as usual. I use plaster instead of ceramic for the mold and it works for me. Would you recommend plaster if artists can't get access to the ceramic?
Very cool!!
As usual, great work! You’re an inspiration to all who aspire to become outstanding craftsmen.

Amazing work 🔥
Nice job!
Love your art ❤️❤️
Awesome 😍😍😍😍
nice, thanks
A simple way to tell how much metal you need is probably filling the cast up with water weighing said water and converting the weight / density into whatever metal your using
thats so good! keep up the great work!
Amazing
Investment casting (lost wax or lost PLA) produce some amazing results. Great job!

Wish I could buy one from ya ! Looks great , only thing I would work on would be vapor smoothing your prints before casting to eliminate layer lines and get an even better finish ! Absolutely amazing though , might try this down the road !
excellent
Контент максимально охуенный, интересно, почему так мало подписчиков и просмотров 🤷🏼♂️ Please continue your work! Good luck and thank you! 🔥🔥🔥
Seems like when you coat the print with wax it doesn't crack during burn out. It might be the wax melting first and giving the PLA some space to expand and cot crack the coating.
Maybe you could use ABS filament, lightly spray with acetone to smooth the print lines, cast the mold, then use more acetone to dissolve the filament completely.
that's cool i want one
Its amazing the type of "rabbit holes" one goes down in order to find stuff like this...I never knew I had an interest in casting metal objects until now lol. Great work man, keep it up. Also...have you ever considered selling these statues?
You're worthy of a subscribe. Thanks for sharing ideas. Keep it up.
Great video and cool content.
I want that
...those... are bad ass!!!!!
Oh damn do you do awesome work. I’m subscribed.
my master
I was always curious... how do you clean the crucible to make sure there is no metal left in it that would mess up the composition of the metal you want to melt next?
Underviewed video. One of your best but so few views!
Have you ever tried using an induction heater to melt your metal? P.S. The colors look lovely
You should try a sea salt and ammonia force patina. Awesome work though!

Thank you! I'm definitely going to try that soon.
Thanks for these awesome videos! These are always really great to watch. Could I ask you, is there a limit to how thick you can cast something? I am really impressed that you were able to pull this one off without getting any shrinkage or pitting. I did not know this was possible at that size. Do you have some method for this other than adding a really big sprue? Do you cast the metal at a lower temperature or something?
INCREDIBLE WORK!!! Did you mix your bronze? If so, what recipe did you use?
nice

Perfect like it is but maybe even more perfect if you were to apply gemstone eyes like the other one too.
Use fiberglass cloth between the ceramic shell layers, it wont crack anymore
Did you think about using ABS and smooth it with acetone vapor? It would make lines less visible on the final metal model
6:52 YOU GOT LUCKY !!!! It could have been your hand ....
Where do you buy your supplies and kit from? Both the suspendaslurry, kaeowool, protection gear and so on. Amazingly inspirational stuff this, and you make it look sooooo easy! :D
Ça me donne envie d’aller couler un bronze
Might be a stupid question but why didn't you add vents? I thought they were an absolute must to ensure complete filling of the mold and avoiding bubbles
This process would be a great way to manufacture metal parts? I bought a foundry for this purpose. I hope it works out. That slurry looks complicated and expensive to use. Ill probably start with plaster
N to the I to the C to the E NICE. 👌👌👌👌👌
Definitely A+, although I wish you’d left it shiny. I am wondering whether quenching a bit after the pour would help with cleanup by cracking up the coating would work with this or whether it would warp some things?
Try making the Chacapoyian Fertility Idol from Raiders of the Lost Ark!
I thought I had too many random tools but this guy has a Ryobi glue gun. Look like I’m heading to Home Depot.
Why do the lost PLA method over making a mold out of petrobond sand like you've done in other videos. Im starting to get into this hobby and your channel is the best for learning this stuff :)
Just wondering, would using fiberglass instead of sand prevent cracking?
Hello, you should not print directly on the heatbed on your Prusa Printer, there is Sheetbed made by prusa to be the printing surface. mutch better IMO for the durability on your printers. Otherwise, love the rest of your video, very creative
which bronze do you use( Its composition) and what temperature cycle (curve) to follow for lost pla???
