Next we have my husband in the shorts & the artist (friend) lifting out the crucible full of molten bronze to start pouring into the molds. Nothing like a little gear to wear on a hot day in a very hot room!
Here they are pouring, and a close up shot below.
These molds were different from the previous set---more open, like he was pouring bars of some sort...
Good to the last drop...
Of course, one can't help but get a bit goofy...sure it's only a sauna in that room, but hey, wouldn't this be a great Halloween costume?

While the process SOUNDS a might tedious, it must have been pretty impressive to see that molten metal glow and feel it's heat! With the tiny bits of hard soldering I've experimented with lately, I have SUCH an appreciation for working with metal, moreso than I did before! Thanks for sharing the FUN FUN FUN pictures!
