I've been interested in metalwork for a long time. However, it never seemed realistic until I ran across the series by David Gingery which are published by Lindsay Books. So, winter 2004 I decided to give it a try. It's been fun, challenging and helped me learn to push through roadblocks and always keep trying. Maybe you will also get inspired to try something new! I subsequently found Stephen Chastain's manuals which are helpful to continue to improve your foundry practice. The next level for me is to try Iron casting. I'll post any progress in the Foundry Log. UPDATE: We finally were able to melt cast iron (Oct 2009). I haven't gotten any pictures yet but you can see a short video on YouTube.

No pictures available. I worked this show by myself and it is *way* too much work for one person. | |
