Bronze Coues Sculpture ( part two)

[Foundry Man]

This is the mold after it was done being dipped (about 2 weeks of dipping)

 

you can kind of see the head and antlers

 

we load up the furnace with the molds.....

 

 

This is the mold being "fired", there are holes I drilled into the mold, the hot wax is pissing out of the mold and therefore is "lost" (hence the term "lost wax" bronze). The mold will then be hollow. The molten bronze will then go in and fill that negative space. HOPEFULLY, that is. There is alot of room for screw-ups. So, keep your fingers crossed...........

This is SOOOO cool

Hey Jason or Amanda, Maybe you could link the posts or just have the first one continued so other people besides us junkies know the steps.

Just a thought,

Mike
