So, two things I would recommend doing: 1. Sand the surface of the word. This stops splintering and if it comes from a blue or orange box store removes the factory varnish they spray on a a sealer. 2. Braze the entire board with a torch before you pour. This will stop the silver from skittering and popping as the surface water will already be evaporated and also acts to harden the wood. No need to recaste the first bar as well. My two cents

@@SilverDragons47 that's a good idea. why not both? I could see maybe 200 degrees for an hour in the oven then harden off the surface gently with a torch. The popping of the molten metal looks very dangerous and is, of course, caused by moisture in the wood rapidly evaporating. Not only that you will inevitably not recover all of the silver that flys everywhere. I could be wrong and maybe wood will do this regardless of the precautions, but it would be interesting to see the contrast reaction of baked and torched wood vs untreated if any as well as the life of the mold.

Likewise you can watch TheKingofRandom's video on a inexpensive diy foundry. I'd also watch The Essential Craftsman for some handy tips about smithing work before committing to anything.

This is great bud. It's neat to see you wandering around in different pouring mediums. My mentor, "Ag Ender" is in my eyes the king of wood pours. He always had a can to cover the wood pours that keeps the topside of the pours nice and with a lot fewer dimples and shaky things on them. Check him out son.He was monumental for getting me going when I first started pouring. Like this I have done a number of sequential wood pours for various folks. Number them so they can see them change from pour to pour. I finally now have all the bolt cutters from 8 to 42 inch. The big boy will chew up a 10 oz bar in no time so I don't need to make near as much shot as I used to. Well bud, , , What a fun post.

I made a furnace by cutting a 55 gallon Harley Davidson oil drum down to a little above half. Added a couple layers of thermal blanket with refractory cement over that. The homemade LP burner is a super simple design which uses a hair drier for forced induction. A low setting is just right, while high pushes the limits of what my cement can handle. I'm using a large salamander graphite crucible at the time, but it's been used primarily for copper. The problem I have in using silver is that the crucible I have is so small. My plans are to do the Oak mold in copper. I can't wait. It's going to be awesome.

I'm sure by now you know why the mold was spitting as you did mention that before. I say this more for the casual scroller. The reason why is due to the water content in the wood. As it heats up it causes the water to evaporate which then creates gas causing the silver to "spit". This is an interesting idea but if I made a suggestion id say next time to heat the hole in the block of wood before casting to prevent the moisture issue. Probably not going to do a ton but the first pour probably wont be as violent as this one.
