ceramic shell handles post cast















Chuck poured my molds for me today while I was at artathon. I broke them out of the shell later in the day and sawed off the sprues, milled the nubs off of the backs, and sandblaster them to clean out the remaining shell. They turned out o.k. but I think I am going to centrifugally cast the rest as the casting investment that we use in jewelry should leave a smoother finish. Still, it's nice to see some metal parts as a result of the cnc files.
