Sand Casting - Six Prong Ring - Video One
In this video I show how to setup a ring with six tall prongs so it can be sand cast. This method must be done correctly to work but once a person understands it the potential for sand casting more intricate rings is huge.
The second video will show how a vacuum table with a simple shop vacuum is used in place of vents. All tools and Red Clay available at my website www.diycastings.com.

I’m just waiting on the next shipment of inserts to arrive. Soon I’m told. Thanks
Great video, thanks I watched a few times! Where can I find the metal pipe and half round you used as the holding piece for the ring? I am curious to get a set with different sizing to accommodate for all ring sizes.(or at least the popular ring sizes). Thanks!

Look on my website at www.diycastings.com. I just came up with two new systems and hope to have the center inserts on the website soon. Thanks.

Very good casting, congratulations. Can you tell what is the grain size of the sand you use to cast this ring? Is it available on your store?

Over 200 and maybe 220. I order about 9000 pounds a year from a foundry in Germany and then mix it to my own oil consistency here in Tucson. Similar to Delft Clay but a bit less oily in my opinion.
Hey Craig, do you know where can buy those tubes + that other clay?

I use aluminum tubing and turn it to size on a lathe.
When would I be able to pre order the tiny oven

I re-designed it and have a couple other jewelers testing it for me first. Once I'm satisfied it works correctly I will offer it for sale to members of my Facebook group only so I can control the safely side of using it as much as possible. Thanks for asking.
We need a bigger ring in order to understand more.
Which power is that??

Did you mean powder? If so, I use mostly cornstarch but sometimes talc. I like cornstarch the best.
