Making a Solid Metal Coyote Skull | Casting Molten Tin

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I made a catalyzed silicone rubber mold using a Coyote Skull and then poured a molten metal alloy made out of tin and bismuth. The result is a 5lbs solid metal skull doorknocker. Parts of the coyote skull where thin and delicate so I used modeling clay to make those parts thicker prior to creating the mold.

The Cerrotru alloy I used has a very low melting temperature so I was able to melt it all with a plug in hot pot.

    BOUNCEHOUSE I was thinking the same thing. I don’t know if that tin alloy is ferrous, but a weak magnet embedded in the “snout” of the skull might keep it in place during normal opening and closing of the door.

    Could countersink the bolt head and the nut. And even maybe fill in the hole after since the material is so easy to work with.

    ​@@mikulalukasz Since you seem to be knowledgeable about general metalworking, and since the video producer doesn't appear to answer posts regarding this video, I'll attempt to ask you my question. How do you deal with tin's natural 'habit' of contracting while cooling and solidifying after being melted and poured? I'm assuming that's probably why ^he added bismuth to his tin, in order to maybe reduce the contraction. But it's actually difficult to find info on the problems associated with tin contraction during casting, and how to solve it.

    The easiest way to remove mill scale and rust together is to soak the metal in diluted muriatic acid for 10-15 minutes.

    I am slowly getting over channels bypassing me paying KZread for commercial free, I do mean slowly It still ticks me off. I don't understand how you are picking your sponsors, the Stupid VPN is not something 90 percent of people watching your videos are even interested in. I am a maker like yourself, 3d printing, Pyrography, I also am a professional jeweler. You might want to advertise something that is useful to the majority of your audience. However, I hate commercials soo much I won't be buying anything that is from a commercial especially if I am paying for no commercials.
