Lost Wax Method Bronze Casting Photos - stage 2 bronze pour

These are the images from the bronze pour process

My mould after the wax had been removed - a hollow ceramic shell is all that remains


Arse shot of Jamie - adding bronze metal to be melted

A green flame rising from the melting pot


Scott stacking the moulds to go back in the burner to be brought up to temperature so they don't explode when you pour hot molten metal into them


The hot moulds being packed into boxes with sand so they stand upright ready to be poured

Opening the furnace to prepare the metal and get the melting pot out



pouring the molten metal into the moulds


pouring into my mould

Moulds after pouring - the metal is still red hot. These will get left over night to cool properly before we break away the moulds tomorrow.
