I tried it and had problems. I then tried Delft Clay and it was fine - and the impressions and results were much better - for me anyway.

Thanks for the comment. I prefer the Delft myself. But sometimes need the volume so have more of the cheaper stuff.

Does anyone know what "whilst" is a conjunction (contraction too) of? It's a Brit thing, I know, but what's the origin?

Great video. Is a magnet any good for removing the coin or would it cause too much disruption on the clay sand?
@garethowen7050Ай бұрын
@@goldenserenity2385 Thanks for the comment. Yes a magnet can be use to remove the patern (coin) if it is magnetic. Put the magnet on the patern and use like a handle.

You can try "RTV-Glue" and "Plaster-Gypsum" So simple + cheaper = Amazing work.

I don't understand how 'Delft Clay' can be a legal name. Delft is a really old city in the Netherlands and when you get clay from there I think you could call it Delft Clay isn't it?

In the 1980s, Hans Karreman (a Dutch goldsmith) developed The Delft Casting Method. Thanks in part to the collaboration with Bijou Moderne bv, this technique has become known worldwide. atelierod255.nl/atelier-od255/

Silicone for high temperatures makes finer details than casting sand.

building sand is just as good.i was a moulder and thats what we used in the 70s .use a sieve 1st 4 your facing sand then just pile on the rest after.just watched the end where u r comparing them if u put the delft though a sieve u will get the samd results as the copy 1 try it

Hi Mike. Thanks for the comment. Not sure about using 'building' sand' for casting silver in. It will either have to much moisture in it or be to dry and so will not hold together. I do have and sometime do use a sieve though, even with the Delft or alt Delft clays. ... If I ever get enough scrap silver I may test your builders sand suggestion, as a test... Thanks
