My father has gotten into doing mushroom casting so I've learned a bit about the process. My guess would be a combination of the mold not being hot enough and not enough back pressure. To force voids out the metal need to continue to be liquid and there needs to be a lot of pressure . My father tends to preheat the plaster molds in the oven while melting the metal and uses around 2x the metal needed to fill the void, with large sprue/funnel along with all the vents to help force out air bubbles

*More than you want to know: Archaeologists could tell it was post Jul 16 1945/first nuclear detonation because this lost wax/plaster casting involves blowing atmospheric air at molten copper/bronze/silver(pipe solder?), radioactive isotopes that never existed before Trinity Project (Jul 16 1945 Alamogordo New Mexico) inclPlutonium 239, Strontium-90, Caesium-137, and Technetium-99also found their way into nearly every piece of copper/bronze/silver produced. Could you do it in an Argon gas environment and fool them? Probably for that test alone but there might be something in welding argon that tips them off IF they ever tested for it. My guess is that no one tests for it, but control your temperature because with current methods you may be getting material hotter than ancient methods and burning out impurities that exist in ancient methods and are visibly identifiable.*

cody IS the bronze shroom

Im amazed the gills turned out so well! very cool, and i bet they will look even better with a nice patina

This is such a cool project, you should do more of these! Maby try different metals and methods for the video material.

Why is longer baking not a option to get rid of the left over moisture for the big casts? However it would be nice to see a other form of casting.

It is an option, just not a very good one. you'd need to bake at very high temperatures for days. Use a lot of energy.

I suspect the heat would damage the cast even more, and eventually you'll have a fragile thing that turns into a pile of dust when you try to handle it, instead of a paster mold. Though maybe a lower, slower evaporation run would work?

I was worried for a second thinking that Cody found a way to genetically altar his mushroom farm to produce metals like a minecraft mod

Or flower them in an amalgamation where they take up extra supplemental minerals. (Was reading up on 3d printer filaments infused with iron or copper that rust and patina after printing. So had infusion in my head, sorry for posting so much Cody)

Looks really cool! I also really liked how it looked before you cleaned off all the plaster and polished it. It looked strangely natural with all those spots.

This is actually really badass, that mounted shroom at the end is beautiful. I honestly think the imperfections make it better
