Nice work brother. The polish job really makes the skull pop. I'm just starting, but have printed some models I'd like to cast. This video helped me make a decision to try sand casting first before buying a vacuum casting machine and kiln.

Thanks so much. I appreciate the kind words. I would like to see how your 1st sand casting experience is. Please let me know. I have another video where I made a batman ring using sand casting as well, if you want to check it out. It is one of my previous video

Keep up the good job 💯💯

Very cool! I have an idea, that would make it pop. If you etched it, so that it was all covered in black, then polished it again, wow, it would look very cool too, because the lines would be very visible!

@@thatoradebe_trj Yes, very good, but I meant the other way around, so after you etch it, then you run it on the polisher, and the lines and groves are left, leaving very pronounced marks. But that one looks good too!

Excellent job! I've been polishing pieces with a Dremel and it takes forever and it's difficult. What type of polishing machine did you use? Also, is there a certain "spec" as to the polishing wheel you used? Thanks.

@thatoradebe_trj

Ай бұрын

Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. The polishing machine is a standard polishing machine which I got at a place called goldsmith and jewellery supplies in Johannesburg, South Africa. I don't know what the brand is. I use a "hard" and a "soft" polishing mop. And I use a compound called "unipol" I hope that helps

@@thatoradebe_trj Thank you!

Thank you for this video, I love seeing your process! Did you cut the wax ring in half to avoid the molten silver cooling before the entire cast is filled? As in, making two separate parts to ensure that the silver fills each mold fully? I really wanna try sand casting myself and this is super helpful!

@thatoradebe_trj

3 ай бұрын

Thank you so much for the comment, it is much appreciated. That is partly the reason for cutting the wax in half. The main reason is because in order to sand cast you need the 2 sand rings to be separated to remove the wax. If I were to make the entire ring and then separate the rings, the mold would break apart due to the shank (the part where your finger goes through) breaking through the sand
