Family symbol in Bronze: L for Lundgren

[@jmpattillo]

The family that casts together stays together.

[@HawkWorley]

I love doing projects with my wife! You are a lucky man to have someone who is willing to work with you.

[@P-K-P]

Love your editing. Thanks for the video.

[@JohnJones-oy3md]

Great to see you back! Was getting worried.

[@lorielverlomme8103]

The gravity can probably help if the letter is casted straight up!

[@farpointstation]

10/10 - The first Bronze Casting power couple 👏 R.I.P Splinter

[@Nickscreativestuff]

Nice to see you back at it with Teretha the new celebrity presenter celebrating in the new wow Work … may you both have many more fun adventures … N

[@boxley]

So glad to see you back at it! My heartbroken a little bit about splinter. He looked like a good one.

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

He was the best ferret anyone could ask for.

[@servethelordnow]

Great job 😃

[@carlwhite8225]

i love your channel and i am sorry for the loss of Splinter.

[@Davesworkshop-j5h]

Brilliant to watch as usual. I love that you show mistakes, it makes the rest of us feel normal. Looking forward to the next one. (Sorry about splinter). 👍

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

I’ll have plenty more mistakes to show in the future! Thanks, we will miss Splinter.

[@dontask8979]

I watched someone heat up the molds in a oven. Once good and hot, they poured it and it helped bigtime, BUT.. There is some shrinkage so there was flashing around the pour, but thats easy to remove. RIP Splinter 🥺

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

Wow. In the oven? I feel like this might exceed the oven rack capacity but I don’t know. Splinter was a special ferret.

❤❤❤❤❤

[@johnfitzgerald4628]

Sorry for loss of Splinter

[@stevesrt8]

definately challenging. worked out great. congrats. a larger pouring basin would probably help get the metal in there quicker.

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

You might be right.

[@yashasvi_handa]

Rest in peace splinter 😢

[@owais146]

SPLENDID

[@yashasvi_handa]

He is back

[@stefandixon6434]

Whew I was worried the gold fever took the place of the casting vids.

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

Haha. I’ll try to do both from now on.

[@stevewilliams2498]

I am at the 2 months out stage trying to get the courage for a 3rd attempt at a skeleton clock frame that has all the same problems. Only bigger. Last attempt the cope sand kept falling out when I turned it over !

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

Some projects can be frustrating. But with each failure you can learn a bit more.

[@henrikstenlund5385]

This is a really challenging pattern as it is so thin. Using a few risers at the critical points would help

[@ttutone1]

Cool video! Sorry to hear about Splinter. 😢

[@AndresJhonnyMirandacopa]

MUCHAS GRACIAS POR LA TRADUCCIÓN ❤

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

KZbin does that for me. It’s great!

[@AndresJhonnyMirandacopa]

Espero que los próximos vídeos tengan traducción. UN FUERTE ABRAZO , ERES LO MÁXIMO , UN GENIO DEL CASTING EN BRONCE SALUDOS CORDIALES 😊

[@stevearehart313]

Risers!

[@royal_ish]

I am sorry for your loss.

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

He was a good ferret

I would highly recommend spraying boron nitride on the mold surfaces. It acts like teflon and allows the metal to flow through the mold. I've also noticed that it slows freezing to a noticeable amount. The sand can also be reused as normal. I like the pump spray by Zyp.

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

Interesting. I’ve never heard of that. I’ll have to try it out.

[@Cornish_Co]

@@lundgrenbronzestudios I also use it on my cast iron and graphite molds as well. I get somewhere between 15 & 20 uses before recoating. Just spray enough to turn the surface white and use a torch to dry it before casting. You will be amazed to see copper ball up and roll around on it like oil on water.

[@jackfntwist]

My expert opinion is that it would have been easier had the L been thicker. 🤣Nice to see you back.

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

😆 I think you are right.

[@dcmotive]

Thats a good marriage where you can teach your wife. ha ha. Like Larry the cable guy says, "Whats the difference between going on a canoe ride with my kids or with my wife, my kids still talk to me on the way home." Awesome job. Sorry about your pet.

[@JohnDoe-fn1me]

Bro, you are back! Awesome! Are you gonna be selling those other small pieces? Keep up the amazing work.

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

Yeah the tooth and the claw. I will sell.

[@JohnDoe-fn1me]

Fantastic, please provide the links when you can. 👏

[@waliza001]

make vertical pour of it. might be easier to get it filled.

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

Maybe. Also more turbulence.

[@waliza001]

@@lundgrenbronzestudios just try :)

[@ClamZ65]

Nice (Team-) work !! You need to match the fast cooling ratio with much more angle to speed the casting up. Look how Neil Burridge cast his swords in England. Sorry bout Splinter > did you name him after the turtles Splinter? Cheers from Germany 🎉

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

Yes, he was named after Master Splinter in the ninja turtles.

[@jorchert]

Awwww!! what happened to splinter?

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

Not really sure. They live to be about 6 and he was 6. I found struggling to breath one day and I picked him up. Then he fainted and stopped breathing right in my lap. He never woke up.

[@jorchert]

@@lundgrenbronzestudios Sorry to hear. Poor little guy. Sorry for your loss. I just lost a pet too. I'm casting rings that will hold her fur.

[@Gertjan1975]

❤

[@hj-clone]

another fun video. my wife stays indoors while the furnace is roaring, but she does like the creations. not seeing me covered in bronze dust. Was Splinter a car keys thief? Cheers!

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

No splinter never cared for taking care of keys thankfully.

[@waliza001]

[@lundgrenbronzestudios]

Yes it’s Si bronze.

[@UnderDuress]

That's right don't give up🥲
