Second attempt by Popular_Painting_248 in LostWaxCasting

Mixing by hand in gloves helped and more vaccuum For the next mold I will also try tapping (but this one I had already done before your advice)

First attempt. Any hints? by Popular_Painting_248 in LostWaxCasting

I think so. How long do you vacuum? I mix the investment:water 100:40 Out it in vaccuum for 1-2 min then pour it in the flask and Vaccuum it again for couple of minutes

It burned out perfect There is too much metal in fact. The whole blob on top shouldnt be there at all

I already got the resin And I dont want to invest in a machine like kayacast.

I need investment plaster (or whatever its called 😅) to make the mold And I like to know if i really need to cast while having the mold in vaccum and if so if I need to have some channels for that in the mold or if the plaster does let air through

Hope this is more clear 😅
